dal

i made some dal as part of my weekend cooking extravaganza. dal is basically a thick lentil soup from india. there are so many types of lentils, but this dal was made from these two types in equal parts. i'll try to find out what the names of these lentils are and post it here later.



it was really easy - just add lots of water and cook the lentils, and in a separate pot brown lots of onion, ginger, and garlic. add it to the cooked lentils, and season with salt and garam masala. this is how i like it - with sour cream, scallions, and a serious chili pepper.
