Rinse the yellow lentils thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear.
In a large pot, add the lentils and 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the lentils are soft and cooked, about 20-25 minutes.
In a separate pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the finely chopped onion to the pan and sauté until golden brown.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and slit green chilies. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
Add the cooked lentils to the pan and mix well. Season with salt to taste.
Let the dal simmer for another 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot with rice or Indian bread.
