Steps:
- Pick over, clean, and rinse the split peas.
- Place them in a deep pot, add the water, turmeric, and salt, and bring to a boil. Boil the peas gently, partially covered, until they are very soft, about 45 minutes, checking and stirring occasionally to ensure they do not stick to bottom of the pan.
- Turn off the heat and beat the split peas with a wire whisk or wooden spoon for a minute or until they look thick and creamy.
- You should have 5 cups of puree; if not, add additional water.
- Return the puree to the pot, add black pepper, and heat until boiling.
- Turn off the heat and fold in the chopped coriander; keep the dal covered.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds.
- When the seeds turn several shades darker, add the garlic and optional red peppers. Cook until the garlic is browned and the oil is infused with its flavor.
- Pour the oil-garlic mixture onto the dal. Mix well.
- Taste for pepper and salt.
- Serve spooned into small bowls.
