I know I have blogged of the wonders, and probably to the despair of foodies worldwide, but these are magnificent.
I love this recipe for a simple red lentil dahl, it’s a vegetarian curry. It’s super simple to make (just keep the heat down low and stir, stir, stir). And it has a taste beyond comparison. It is also incredibly cheap- less than a dollar for the ingredients, which will easily serve 4. It makes a meal served with rice for around 50 cents per person. Crazy!
I recommend trying it, even non-curry lovers like it. Leave out the chilli for those of you who don’t like hot.
As leftovers, lentils are great. I personally love a nice dahl toasted sandwich on an honey grain toast as lunch the following day. The flavours of all curry deepen over time, so they make the best leftovers.
