LentilsDal, a dish that I totally underestimated. Once done, it never let me go. If there was a ranking of how many times I have made different Recipes I’ve made, this would be right up there with them. The advantages are obvious: Even on days when my refrigerator is empty, I have the ingredients for the dal at hand. Lentils , Coconut milk Lemon juice, curry powder, tamari and curry paste are absolute basics in the vegan kitchen.
Simple lentil dal (vegan)
Well, today times desire on Indian?
Lentils are just perfect, hearty and above all very healthy and rich in:
- Calcium, magnesium and potassium
- Zinc for beautiful hair and nails (Beauty Food!)
- Provitamin A and vitamin E
- B vitamins
For dal there is delicious Naan bread / Naan bread (gluten-free), which I bake out fresh just before serving (if I have time), otherwise there is “only” basmati or whole grain rice with fresh or dried parsley. Oh man, I’m getting hungry again just writing this text. Hope you find the easy vegan lentil dal as delicious as I do. It’s also super easy to prepare, so you don’t have to be trained as a celebrity chef.
The ingredients for a delicious lentil dal I just always have in the house
The dish is so wonderfully versatile, especially when it comes to varying the level of spiciness. Depending on how spicy you like it, you can experiment with dried chilies and fresh chilies. I usually use 1-2 Bird’s Eye Chili, which gives a nice spiciness. Perfectly fit but also fresh green Jalapenos . You have the choice.
The simple Linsen Dal is:
- Indian
- aromatic
- creamy
- filling
- Easy to manufacture
Goes perfectly with simple, vegan naan bread .
