Directions
Lentil Potato Dal,I don’t know where I got this recipe. Dal is typically made with lentils, tomatoes, onions, and a spices. My friends in India say Dal is a staple type dish like mashed potato is to American’s. This smells & tastes wonderful.,This recipe worked well, I just made a few changes:
– left out the butter and salt to make it healthier (and vegan)
– didn’t use ginger or the red wine vinegar as I didn’t have any
– instead of the water and chopped tomato used a can of chopped tomato and a bit of extra water (I found I needed to keep adding water as it simmered (even with a lid on))
– used a sweet potato instead of a regular potato
– added garam masala and some Japanese curry powder as they were on hand. The spice level was good – warm but not hot.
I made up a batch and then froze it for lunches during the week (I just add to some vegetables and rice). Very handy recipe.
