Boil in 2 cups water with turmeric, little salt and tamarind pulp for about 3-4 minutes. Drain and reserve. Wash and chop the green chillies. Soak the four dals for about 20 minutes, drain and grind to a thick paste with the red chillies, salt and asafoetida with just enough water. Spread the paste evenly on a plantain leaf and steam for about 15 minutes or till completely cooked. Test by inserting a toothpick or needle into the mixture. If it comes out clean then it is cooked.

Add the chopped green chillies and sauté. Add the cooked flower and the dal mixture. Toss on high heat for a couple of minutes and then reduce the heat and keep stirring till it starts sizzling. Serve hot.
