Spicing up plain ol' dal

Even plain ol' dal can be spiced up with a few crushed dal vadis- perfect for those days when you want something more than just "regular dal", but don't feel like putting in any additional effort.
Pressure cook masoor dal with turmeric and red chilli powder till soft and mushy. Mash well, add water to get the desired consistency, add salt to taste and bring to a boil.
Temper jeera in some mustard oil. Add 1/2 an onion chopped fine, and when it turns transparent, add about 2 tbsps of crushed vadis. Fry till onions are browned, then pour over the dal and serve.
