Dal

From Jenny Also Cooks

I came across this amazing recipe on Steamy Kitchen for Indian Dal Nirvana. The fat content is sticker shock, but I always make a recipe as written the first time around (unless it has meat in it!).

It was delicious, although I may have oversalted, since it seemed to get saltier as it cooled. And spicier, phew. Next time I'm going to try using coconut milk and half the fat, replacing butter with olive oil. I think it might still have some of the creaminess. We'll see!

But it is always good to find an Indian recipe that actually tastes as good as what you'd get in a restaurant. The only other one I've been satisfied with was the Aloo Gobi recipe from the special features of Bend It Like Beckham.
