Directions
Tarka Dal,A recipe given to me by a workmate. A good vegetarian dish. The lentils need to soak for 30 minutes prior to cooking- so soak them and then move on with recipe preparation (If you dont have ghee- use some more vege oil in preference to butter),Thank you for the recipe. I highly recommend it as it is easy to follow. It has an authentic taste to it. It is quite of a big portion enough for about 4 – 5 people, you can half the recipe if you want a smaller portion. I made it around 3 times now. Myself, my family and friends love it! So delicious.
