This recipe is perfect! I've been wanting to try making Dal and I've got everyone of these ingredients. Thank you.
A really good recipe will try it soon for sure. A gift basket at Christmas contained a large jar of chutney ! Good timing.
So happy you like dal and rice. For most Indians (me included) dal & rice is comfort food. All the different dals are loaded with nutrients, and moong dal especially is also easy to digest and hence good when starting babies on solids, as well as for invalid people.
It tastes so good Margie! I think you'll really enjoy the dal.
Oh that is good timing Elenl I hope that you enjoy the recipe.
It is comforting food for sure! I have been eating it for my lunch and have made several batches of it since Frances published the recipe on her blog. I realize now what I have been missing!
It sounds delicious! I rarely use lentils, and do not remember ever having Dal. Time to expand my repertoire and I certainly need to have a few weight watchers meals these days :)
It does sound delicious. I've yet to try it.
Am now looking for more lentil recipes! They are so healthy that I would like to find out more recipes to serve with our meals. Weight Watchers from the 360 green regime is what I am following...I am not paying for the new plan right now, am trying to reduce like I did in the past. Good luck!
If you do try it let me know what you think of the recipe.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this recipe -- and you did a great job of demonstrating the process. Isn't it yummy? And that it can taste so good and be so healthy is such a boon at this time of year especially, right?!(I also like it with brown basmati rice, for even more fibre goodness ;-)
It is really delicious! I am loving it so much.
