Dal
Created by The MDM Team, Wednesday, November 21, 2007
Serve this healthy Dal with rice for a special breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
1 lb. dried lentils, rinsed and picked over
1 onion, roughly chopped
fresh ginger, 2-inch piece, peeled and minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp. curry powder (hot or mild, your preference)
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 dried red chilies (or hot red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper, to taste)
3-4 tomatoes, cored and roughly chopped (optional)
Salt
Black pepper

Methods/steps
Add the first 8 ingredients to a large pot, along with water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; adjust heat so the mixture simmers steadily but not violently. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are soft, about 1 hour. Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve or cover and refrigerate for up to several days before reheating.
