Directions
Punjabi Dal Makhani,A Punjabi mixed lentil curry generally made with lots of butter and cream.This recipe tastes even better the following day after reheating properly.,Thank you for posting this recipe, I just went to put the legumes on to soak – please let me know which variety of tomato you are referring to, do you mean large roma tomatoes or another kind? Thanks in advance for your advice.,I went off the rails working with what I had ghee instead of oil+butter, no fresh ginger so I added powdered ginger to the oil at the beginning to try to coax flavor out of it…. I had extra onions, 2 small plum tomatoes and at the end I decided to try ras el hanout instead of garam masala and teleport the dish to North Africa instead of India. It works. 😉
