Description
Dal Tadka is a classic Indian dish made with lentils, a staple of Indian cuisine for thousands of years. The lentils are cooked until soft with turmeric, and then seasoned with tadka - hot fat with spices. Tadka is a culinary technique that involves frying spices in heated ghee or oil, which releases their aromas. This dish is nutritious, rich in protein, and perfect for vegetarians and vegans (using oil instead of ghee).

Tips
It is best to serve Dal Tadka on a warm plate, alongside basmati rice or naan bread. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve with natural yogurt to mellow the spiciness of the dish.
Leftover Dal Tadka is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it can last up to 3 days. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months. To reheat, simply use the microwave or warm it up in a pan, adding a little water to maintain the consistency.

Zamiast zwykłej soli użyjcie soli morskiej - smak jest delikatniejszy.
Czy mogę użyć mleka kokosowego zamiast zwykłego mleka?
