I wanted to share a part of my culture with my audience. Since living outside of India I have developed a huge respect and appreciation of Indian cuisine. There is so much variety and the recipes are also vegan-friendly. Daal is a great example of this. It actually reminds me of my childhood when I would come back home all tired and hungry from school. My mom would pull out a nice hot bowl of daal and roti for me and that was all I needed! And she used to make it in one pot or saucepan too when she was short on time. Since it is so easy to prepare in just one pot, it could be a quick dinner option. And even though you can have this easy one-pot daal recipe just by itself, I highly recommend making a batch of basmati rice or Indian flatbread like roti or chapati, along with this. These go great on the side with maybe some sautéed veg, mm mmmm. Ultimately daal is something that is easy and prepared in almost every Indian household. I believe it should be prepared all over the world! Let us be a part of the daal revolution, leggo! Do try this recipe out and let me know how you like it. If you have any queries, I’m here to help you in the comments or DM me on my Instagram page.
