I'm not sure why this recipe is called 'spiced sweet potato dahl'. It doesn't have any spices in it!

This recipe is missing some important ingredients. It doesn't include any salt or pepper, and it doesn't say how much water to use.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dahl turned out a little bit too spicy. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I had some roasted sweet potatoes in the fridge, and they worked perfectly in this dish.
