Spicy Masoor Dal
Today I am sharing a Dal recipe with U people as Dal is my comfort food whenever i don’t want to overload myself or after i have eaten out a lot ( n feeling guilty as hell) Dal or any lentils give you so much protein which we herbivores are usually deficit in so try including dals/lentils in your everyday diet as much as possible
My recipe has Masoor/ Red lentil which is so delicious in taste n flavour n combined with steamed rice is a pleasure or have hot brown rice if u want. Even a hot paratha /roti goes so well with it
