Dhal

Dhal can be served both as a main or side dish and is a great filling, vegan dish that is inexpensive to produce. In essence Dhal is a combination of legumes (lentils, peas, beans), vegetables & spices. Our recipe is super easy and tastes amazing. Lentils are packed with protein and nutrients so this dhal has the added benefit of being healthy!

 Overview:

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 onion - chopped
• 1 clove of garlic finely chopped
• 1 tomato chopped
• 200g dried lentils (or a can of lentils will also do well and save time)
• parsley to garnish

Method:

1. Cook lentils according to packet instructions.  Heat oil in pan add onion tomato and garlic and fry until soft.  Stir in 3 teaspoons of our Dhal blend and mix well.
2. Pour cooked lentils and water from pan (or liquid from tin) in with the spice blend. Stir thoroughly so flavours are evenly distributed then let simmer for 10 mins or until porridge like consistency.
3. Garnish with parsley.
