Varan Recipe -- How to make Maharashtra Varan

Hi, Thank you friends and viewers. Today I will post how to make Varan recipe.
Varan is toor dal tempered with ghee and cumin seeds. It is from Maharashtra cuisine, served with rice. It is traditional recipe made almost in every household.
A very light dish. It is made mainly during Ganesh festival season.It is plain and simple. There are numerous variations to this dish. Adding onions, tomatoes and adding other spices all depends on ones choice and taste. My neighbour Usha's sister Shobha gave me this dish. I cross checked with my cousin's wife Priya. Both gave me the same procedure, simple way of making it. Just adding garlic and temper with crushed cumin seeds.
It is served with hot piping rice, so both of them together called as VaranBhaat.
