1. In a blender, process ginger and garlic with 1/4 cup water until smooth. 2. In a large pot, heat 1/4 cup ghee over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until well-browned, about 20 minutes. 3. Add ginger-garlic puree, cayenne, ground coriander, ground cumin and turmeric. Cook until nearly dry, about 5 minutes. 4. Add lentils and 4 cups water. Add salt to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. 5. In a large skillet, heat the remaining ghee over medium-high heat. Add the mustard seeds, cumin seeds and sliced chiles. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mustard seeds pop, about 2 minutes. 6. Serve bowls of the lentils with the spiced ghee on top. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
