Sometimes a gentle Indian repast alongside separate dal is but the matter I crave. I adore the creamy texture as well as mellow even thus unique flavor of urad dal mixed alongside toor dal as well as smoky, aromatic spices. Fresh fenugreek is a must inwards this dish as well as it was a please to uncovering to a greater extent than or less at my local Indian grocery store. It imparts a slight bitterness as well as pepperiness but a highly pleasing as well as subdued contrast to the tomato plant as well as spice components of the dal. I served it alongside hot white basmati rice, but it sure as shooting would become good alongside naan or whatever other Indian apartment staff of life as well as a side vegetable dish to consummate the meal.
I'm reposting this recipe from the archives alongside to a greater extent than or less updated photos as well as revisions.
