[@MotoM0nk]

love how you tell about your childhood xx p.s. a add turmeric into the lentils too and salt only after it is cooked through (salt seems to make dal cooking a little harder). I also add dal into the vegetable masala (not the other way round) so that the masala flavours that are still on the pan come out to the dal.

[@lisavolpe3269]

Coming from an Italian woman, i always start out with other ethnic foods but they always turn out tasting Italian haha, but this truly tasted and smelled authentic Indian. You are such a lovely woman and I enjoyed listening to your beautiful directions. My family loved it, thank you so much !

[@HariGhotra]

Thanks for trying it and I am the same my food always ends up having an Indian twist!

[@anilyrozario8338]

LOL!! Opposite for me. I start out making Italian turns out Indian. 😂

[@thatsrealroughbud...2394]

I have to say, I've been making this for years. I come back to this video time and time again. It's so good, easy, healthy, CHEAP and it freezes so well. It's both a staple in my weekend batch cook where I portion up doubled, tripled, quadrupled batches to freeze to have easy meals. I also turn to this for a fast meal during the week when I just don't have time for anything else. It's so much for appealing now in this economy with how expensive meats have gotten. It's a delicious, easy, cheap, high protein, filling meal. I hope more people find it.

[@kafayahassan4528]

I don't know if you'll see this comment. i made the lentils and I cant thank you enough. I was about to throw some lentils that I had because I never knew how to make them. Today the weather being cold and doing the laundry this was exactly what I needed. Than k you from a living alone student :)

[@HariGhotra]

Yay I’m so pleased to read your comment!! Lentils are cheap, nutritious and delicious. You just need to know how to cook them. Perfect if you have a tight student budget. Thanks for trying the recipe!

[@urmum7705]

I first tried dhal when I worked as a security guard in one Indian kitchen and I'm telling you, I was very much fascinated. All food I tried was super good, but dhal is something simple, yet the best, at lest for me. Also, I have only nice words for my Indian friends. I don't work there anymore, but I still message one of them, and sometimes I get to see him, when he can come downtown. God bless India!

[@alanm9523]

It is a great way to connect more with my culture and it really does remind me so much of home. I find Indian food to be comforting. A thoughtful dish is a way that you can show others that you love them. I am so glad that I found your channel. I can’t wait to start on more recipes.

So lovely to have this recipe and comprehensive video, thank you for sharing! I’m going to investigate your other recipes. It’s one of the finest cuisines on this planet. I’d also much rather tarka dhal than chicken soup! ❤️

[@arthas640]

i love cooking videos but only watch a couple channels because i get sick of these "food blog" and "food-tuber" style videos where the recipe is 80% the cooks life story, 10% showing off their cooking gadgets, and 10% actual cooking. I tried looking up some recipe on google not too long ago and the recipe literally started off with talking about the cooks great grandmother for half the recipe, and you know a recipe cant be that great when it starts off in 1908 and we have to slog through paragraphs of some Edwardian era maids life before we get to a soup recipe.

[@leilamenouar8998]

magicpony9 I wholeheartedly agree! I love the little tidbits she adds that explain the cooking process; example how she talks about the chalkiness of adding too much turmeric.

[@leilamenouar8998]

Hari Ghotra truly well done! I love the cooking tidbits you add that answer the why and not just the how.

[@claudiaandrade5085]

I followed this recipe to the “T” and it was absolutely amazing! I’ve never commented on a video but felt compelled to this time.

Real Health food? Really? This is masoor dhal (lentils). You can eat 1 kg of chicken or beef or fish and nothing will happen to you. However if you eat 50 gms of these lentils, you will bloated within the next few hours. :-) Health foods are fruits, oily fish and vegetables, not lentils.

[@florabescansaluers]

Rowen Fernandes bloating most often indicates you aren’t getting enough fiber in your diet, and actually need to be consuming more high-fiber food such as lentils and other pulses and legumes

[@Paretozen]

@@rowenfernandes2956 Don't spread misinformation please. Lentils are top quality food across the board. Fruits are full of sugar. Oily fish is extremely expensive and thus not accessible to most people. Vegetables contain no calories so you have to eat kilos of them. Beef has a Major CO2 footprint, not to mention the negative health effects. Chicken is fine, fish is fine, .. both in moderation & only to supply you with essential aminoacids. Keep it real!

[@InvictusEternal]

Hi Hari, I am an American who has become absolutely enthralled with Indian cooking and culture and I love your videos so much. In my Indian cooking journey - I noticed with many dhal recipes - garlic and ginger is chopped and added when making the masala portion - whereas in a lot of other dishes ginger garlic paste is used instead. Is it possible you can help me understand the different applications as to why they should be added as chopped and not in a paste?

[@HariGhotra]

Hi That is great to know - so pleased that you are enjoying the videos. The difference is really personal preference. I prefer not to buy garlic, ginger pastes because I prefer to use fresh so I use what I have in my fridge and its quicker to chop or grate rather then get a blender out. I also like the texture of garlic slices in my dhal. If I wanted to cook something with a silky smooth sauce I may then blitz the ginger and garlic to a paste and use that. I also sometimes blitz to make a homemade paste of ginger and garlic if I have a lot of it that needs using up. I will cover with oil and and keeps for a few months in the fridge. Does that help and answer your question? I would also urge you to download my free app so you can ask me questions and I will respond directly. Just search Hari Ghotra in your app store.

Don’t know if this gets to you, but you have an amazing aura, it transcends into your cooking ! You’re an amazing, wish I knew you in person!

I find Indian food the best cure for a blue mood on a wet, chilly, cloudy day. The fantastic, intense and to westerners exotic spice flavors conspire to brighten up ones mood. Thanks for this mouthwatering recipe.

On a wet and chilly day I need some pakora and a nice cup of tea

[@ritaranee4787]

Come visit Shillong and you will find all kinds of food here... from spice numbingly to flavourful soupy

[@jeanneamato8278]

I could watch you for hours. Very soothing plus I love Indian food.

[@edstraker8451]

Thanks for the vid Hari. One of the best methods Ive seen on cooking lentils. Thinking of eating them on their own 3 times a week, as a health kick.

[@weallmakechoices7456]

Thank you for this excellent recipe and demonstration. I cooked this for lunch with a few adaptations due to lack of ingredients: Some Tabasco instead of chilli Fresh rosemary instead of fenugreek Tomato paste in a tube instead of fresh Fresh parsley instead of fresh coriander A really delicious, simple and quick meal, I had mine with boiled rice and I made a chappatti to go with it. Thank you very much Hari.

First saw this video a few months ago, and came back to tell you how much I love this recipe. It's such a delicious and easy meal that I've made it almost every week since March. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes :)

I'm definitely trying this out. Looks simple and delicious (I love lentils).

[@Mr-MH227]

I’ve watch loads of cooking channels, try my best to reincarnate what I learn from them but this is the first for me that’s explains how the taste of different spices can alter when cooking , ref Turmeric so thank you .

[@careya]

I made dal today. It’s the comfort food I never knew I was missing.

[@Ducktility]

Thanks for saying Dal correctly

Mmm, mmm, good. I just made this dish and it tastes so good. I added a little coconut milk and butter to the pot at the end to give it a nice creamy flavor.

[@naderhfx2000]

I made it , and it was great. one of the tastiest dal i ever had

[@HariGhotra]

[@lulasamir2794]

I love lentils but I got tired of cooking it the same way every time. I found this and I decided to try it out. I couldn't find fenugreek leaves and garam masala but I asked my Indian friend and she gave me some. My Friend was even giving me tips on how to make it better but I told her that I was following the recipe in this video exactly. After I was done I asked her to taste it and give me her verdict. She went from giving me tips to asking for this recipe ✌😄 It is absolutely delicious! I am having it with bulgur Thank you so much for this recipe ♥♥♥ God bless you 🙏

[@KARAN7497]

Very well presented, cook is calm , composed and beautiful lady. Good recipe

I love this video and also the Aloo Gobi video from Hari. Watched it many times and have her on video while cooking to make sure the procedure's right. My husband says this is the best dhal he ate in his whole life! He's had many dhals in his life so I am so happy to say this. The wonderful thing is, this is quick and easy and delicious. Healthy too! So this has become our favorite Hari's dish for now. I've made it for ourselves and also taught my grown up kids how to make it.
