Dal Makhani image

This is a yummy dal, I love it. It is simple and easy to cook and simply cool! You will find this to be low cal too. Also, if you drizzle some fresh lemon juice over it right before serving, it becomes so tangy and all the more savoury. This is dry in texture unlike lentils which usually have gravy, but this is very very tasty.
