30 minute meals - INDIAN TADKA DAL - Super healthy and delicious!

[@elizabethe5976]

As I have had to go gluten and dairy free your tadka dal recipes have become a mainstay and I’m not sure how I’d survive without it. Thank you!!!!

[@FoodwithChetna]

My pleasure 😊 and so glad to help

[@madhumistry6815]

What can you replace for cake for nuts alerige

[@xrashtiks]

Your Chana Dal w/tadka recipe, very similar to this one, was the gateway drug that got me into cooking harder recipies from your channel. This looks like a perfect recipe for a first timer, very easy and so yummy. Can't wait to try this one!

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thats wonderful and hope you will enjoy this too.

[@hikenadventure]

Right ok I tried this and got some of the order wrong but, it still came out well. It was tasty, I shall try it again in the week properly. Thank you,I really enjoy your videos and your honesty about double dipping. I would totally do that when cooking for my family.

[@whitepunksvevo1343]

I love your recipes. I have been watching for years, I even saw you on T.V. for a chefs contest some years ago. anyhow, my friends love curry now, they wonder how an old long haired traveling rock musician could have another talent.

[@FoodwithChetna]

That is awesome!

Add a pinch of sugar or jaggery to the dal when mashing it, it tastes amazing

[@FoodwithChetna]

[@MrNigara]

Tarka or tadka? or doesn't matter? Delicious anyhow

[@netralikamat6759]

Hi Chetna, Love your recipes. Just one question can I use moong dal or tur dal instead of chana dal?

[@FoodwithChetna]

this is masoor dal and not chana and yes you can use toor instead

[@netralikamat6759]

@FoodwithChetna oops, sorry, my mistake 😅. Thank you !

[@florencejoanjones5233]

[@odettemarillier1297]

Here in South Africa we entering colder weather and nothing says comfort food to me than dhal.... Uhmmmm ❤

[@FoodwithChetna]

absolutely!

[@piad7027]

May i ask what type oil can be used as alternstive to ghee thank you

[@snlarini99]

A neutral oil - here we have sunflower oil or vegetable oil (rapeseed oil). I read US call vegetable oil canola oil

[@rafthejaf8789]

Looks lovely but isn't it better to add the salt towards the end of the cooking and also to remove the scum when it forms at the beginning?

[@MrCElk]

Hi Chetna, I've been cooking Dal for about 40 years. Every other recipe I've ever used has a requirement to skim off the foam or "scum" as some of them say. Have I been wasting my time? Just as an aside I use your recipes for my Christmas dinner 😃

[@FoodwithChetna]

ok so most of the times dal is cooked in pressure cookers in India and I have never seen anyone skim the top off so yeah dont bother with that. So glad you tried the recipes for Christmas.

[@MrCElk]

@@FoodwithChetna Given the pressure cooker thing this makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the reply and your advice.

[@rayradiance666]

Do you know why Indian legume stews usually flavor the dish at the end with the tempering method instead of just sauteeing the aromatics and dumping legumes and cooking it all together?

[@IvanIV05]

I haven't hada dal in a long time, I think it's time to get those red lentils out.

[@FoodwithChetna]

go for it

[@MrMurph73]

Chetna you burned the garlic. Is that intentional?

[@itsmejanny]

I live in a small rural town on the Olympic Peninsula in WA State. We have no Indian restaurants here and I love Indian food. Thank you for your channel, Chetna, as I now can make delicious Indian dishes for me and my friends.

[@peppapig3761]

That’s not how you cook Dhaal. You skim the top when boiling the lentils Also you put the tempered onions etc in the Dhaal and cook. Also ginger. ??? Not authentic.

[@FoodwithChetna]

😂😂😂 clearly you have no idea about dals or indian food otherwise you would have known that there are hundreds i mean HUNDREDS of ways of making dal. You will be shocked when you see dal being cooked without garlic too or any tadka for that matter

[@peppapig3761]

@@FoodwithChetna keep your pants on. I’m old enough how to cook Dhaal. What you made would be tasteless because the two most important parts of Dhaal making is that they should make love together the Dhaal and Tempering. You just sloped the Tempering on top of the Dhaal. That’s not love that’s quick time Dhaal. COMMENT FROM A FEMALE BRAHMIN !
