How to become addicted to Dal? Spend one month in India. ❤️ It is impossible not to fall in love with the creaminess of this curry and the explosion of spices. We are not exaggerating when we say that after eating Dal for the first time in Jaipur we could not stop! And from that moment we had to have at least one portion every day at one of the meals.
Dal is an Indian lentil curry. It is very easy to prepare, delicious, full of flavours, not to mention healthy, full of protein, vegan and gluten-free!
There are many ways to write dal and all are correct:
red lentil dal recipe, red lentil dhal recipe, red lentil daal recipe, or red lentil dahl recipe.
And there are countless Dal recipes throughout India! The way it is prepared differs by region because there are different combinations of spices used. It can be served as a main course or as a side dish.
I tested several recipes to recreate that red lentil curry at home just like in India. And we find out that the most delicious Dal is when you temper the spices separately!
Below is the recipe for a Dal from northern India, respectively Dal Tadka. Tadka means spices that sizzle in hot oil and are poured over Dal. The hot level of the recipe is medium. So depending on your preferences, you can remove or add the spice.
