I don't have time to cook elaborate meals, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to try this recipe. It looks delicious, though!

I'm allergic to lentils, so I couldn't try this recipe. However, I'm sure it's delicious for people who can eat lentils.

This recipe was a complete disaster. The dhal was burnt and the tarka topping was inedible. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The dhal was a little too salty for my taste and the tarka topping didn't add much flavor. I wouldn't make this again.

I'm not usually a fan of lentils, but this dish changed my mind. The spices and aromatics really elevated the flavor of the lentils, and the tarka topping added a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making this again.
