Contains a whole spice pouch, a "tarka" spiced sauce and cooked lentils
If you’ve never tried Makhani Daal, you’re in for a treat. These lentils are actually whole tiny black beans which when cooked slowly, plump up into creamy flavourful nuggets of deliciousness.
This daal is a restaurant staple and a real favourite in India. It is simply flavoured with tomatoes, whole spices, ginger and garlic for a deep rich, slightly smoky flavour, with a little cream and butter for that signature richness. It is absolutely delicious, some might say addictive, so be warned!
Fry the whole spices in 1-2 tsp of hot oil (or ghee) until sizzling
Stir in the tarka sauce (the small pouch) and bring to a simmer
Add the lentils and 4-5 tbsp water, bring to a simmer… then serve!
