Chana Dal

Description

The pulse behind Chana Dal is recognized as split Bengal gram or split chickpeas. Chana dal appear as really small chickpeas and usually come deskinned. The lentil has a nutty flavor that pairs well with spice for a warm and comforting meal.

While turmeric, chili, garam masala, and tomato cook in a pot with your split Bengal gram, heat a pan with oil, cumin, mustard seed, chopped garlic, and dried red chilies. Combine the two mixtures once your dal is fully cooked and your garlic is browned. Serve your Chana dal in a bowl with lemon juice and cilantro on top and enjoy.
