I love your channel and just bought Cooking with Confidence. I would love to know who makes your food/spice storage system.

[@nicermog]

Another approach would be: - add drumsticks/drumstick leaves/yin choi/snake gourd along with split pigeon peas to a boil till the lentils are done - add kashmiri chilly powder and turmeric and salt as per taste - add finely blended coconut paste(grated frozen ones seem to be best in BC at least) instead of coconut milk - add tempering of mustard, whole kashmiri red chillies (after toastng over the cooktop till it gets a slight char) and shallots. I prefer coconut oil but canola or vegetable oil is fine too but olive oil in this would be too dominant flavor This recipe takes about similar time but does not call for any other condiments like cardamom or cloves or cumin seeds, or garnishing with cilantro coz the tempering is the garnish. Tomatoes optional. More of a savoury (though heat level in this is mild) than a sweet dish.

Looks delicious! I like that you don’t skimp on the rice or curry. Is the coconut overwhelming or just a hint. I’m not a huge fan of coconut, but I’d like to try this.

[@evid1000]

I have made this a few times now. It's always so delicious. For those of you who might not try this b/c you don't have all the separate ingredients, here are my substitutions. They haven't impacted the flavor profiles for me. I use a can of Rotel or store brand tomatoes and chilis instead of the individual items listed in the recipe. I rarely have whole spices on hand, so I used ground cumin coriander and cardamom. I throw that into the pan when I saute the onions. Any type of white rice is best so as not to compete with the curry, but I have used wild rice in a pinch. Again not as tasty as white but it'll do in a pinch. This recipe is fairly quick and very easy. Don't wait to try making it as Yeung Man really knows what he's doing.

[@pfefferle74]

His recipie is basically just a variant of Dhal. You can get a basic Dhal curry just by Lentils (of any kind) and Garam Masala - which is already a mixture of many of the other spices in his recipie. Onions, garlic, coconut milk and tomatoes are all just recommended but optional ingredients.

[@susancampbell7335]

Amazon has all spices local store does not. It's worth obtaining those unique spices .

My issue with Indian food is the heat, we just don’t like the mouth burn and it masks the other flavors.

Make it without any chilies, im allergic to nightshades so i cant have any tomatoes, potatoes, or peppers of any kind so i just leave them out from the recipe. It still tastes good.​@southernyankee2300

I am yet to find a cook like Yeung Man on YT. He is focused and he zeroes in on the task for the moment: the kitchen is clean and orderly, the ingredients are stored in labeled containers, and the utensils and dishes are nice and versatile; even the food looks forward to being served on his clean plates. The stove is more than happy to cook the ingredients and the music in the background does not jar my delicate sensibilities as I watch his skill and listen to his level tone of voice. The colorful colors -- like this dish -- appeal to the eye! What more do you want?

You are doing a great job for the society❤️ I was a hard core non vegetarian till I visited a farm and witnessed the horror of the dairy industry. The cow is inseminated painfully every 6 months so that calf is born. The calves are taken away immediately without a single drop of milk. The male calves are transported to the slaughterhouse to be killed on the very day. This process continues for some years till the cow is completely exhausted and later sold for meat. That’s the milk we consume. I literally had sleepless nights after watching the cows, their udders become so big they can’t even move. And they run to save their babies from going to the slaughterhouse. Thank you for these recepies so that people can choose compassion in their plate instead of pain.

I'll recommend Naan tho instead of roti. Just a personal preference. And also instead of olive oil I'll recommend using Ghee(clarified butter). They bring out better flavours.

A great additional garnish you can add, and from families that live in the north of India, we take 3 - 4 tbsps of a light veg oil, and fry cumin seeds until they pop, or onion and garlic until almost burnt, and then tip the oil and everything over the Dahl just before you serve. It adds incredible flavour and stops the curry forming a skin.

[@JacksonCA2]

Thanks, I made this today, but I did keep calm and curried on! Easy recipe! I had only coriander powder and curry powder, so I used the same amount of spice but only toasted them for 2 minutes. Next time, I’ll bloom the spices in a bit of oil. Otherwise, I followed the recipe pretty faithfully and the result was quite yummy!

You know you're working with sharp knives, when they cut tomatoes - like through butter..!! Wil, I love everything about your cooking, your kitchen and your channel 💜

As someone who is *extremely* sensitive to hot peppers, I find the difference in heat level when the seeds (and ribs) are removed is negligible at best. Using just a tiny amount instead works better. Your mileage may vary. 😝

His voice!!! 🥰 i can hear his voice all day with that music 🎶 so pleasant. 😅😁 😇😊

Finally made it, and it's good! I added 2 carrots and a potato just to make it more substantial, but it's good either way. And as some others have commented, I used ground spices instead of whole, but I did have all of them on hand.

I love red lentils and I love curry! Why have I never put them together?! Thanks for this, I’ll be making it soon!

Ya really it’s Indian daal(lentil) chawl(rice) recipe. Without daal chawl our dinner is incomplete. I’m vegetarian so I like ur whole recipes. Thanks for sharing. And we said these mix species (garm masala), we add in all curry vegetables but we add dry coriander seeds, black- green cardamom, cumin seeds,cloves, black pepper,cinnamon stick,nutmeg,bay leaves grind them well ur garm masala or mix species ready for use

hey just curious... ive been making indian recipes off of an amazing authentic veg recipe blog but ive never seen any dishes with coconut milk, which i love dearly btw. Have you? Think im going to try adjusting my a fav, dal tadka to this. Thanks for the vid

[@borednow]

@@septicflesh17 south indian food has coconut milk in it, north indian not really... every region has their own way of cooking and spice mixes

[@septicflesh17]

@@borednow after looking again, i see a quite a few recipes that call for coconut to blended with water so yeah, good call.... the blogger is from northern india which happens to by favorite which also factors in. thank you edit: wont say the blog out of respect for Mr. yeung but it really does seem truly authentic

[@black_platypus]

I came for the possibility of maybe learning something new and probably gaining a broader understanding of lentil curry - but I paused, liked, commented and stayed for the "you won't be able to keep calm and curry on" 😂❤ Even if step one was something that would otherwise disqualify the dish for me ordinarily, I'd still hear this out because damn, that sleek phrase earned my attention and respect 😊

[@cfree5499]

Another perfect video!! You r amazing!!! I can have your videos on all the time. While in the bath, reading, meditating, having breakfast. And your voice! Thank you universe!!

[@AlexiKnox-qh2xn]

Amazing video, my mother is a vegetarian (has been her entire life) and this reminds me of her cooking, and the end product is the same. brilliant video.

[@ItsmeCR-g8j]

Aww… I’ve been making a similar recipe for the last few weeks. The difference is you used whole herbs. I’m going to try it this way!

I always enjoy your wonderful recipes and videos. One of the things I’ve liked about your videos was that you didn’t use background music. The music in this video was non-offensive but totally unnecessary. I personally prefer just watching you cook in silence, except, of course, when you verbally list the ingredients and measurements.

[@loati94]

I think your brain tricked you for some reason because he's always had music in the background. Maybe he changed the song or the volume in this video and your brain detected it and you think he didn't have music before? I don't know but every video has music.

[@heathercollins4432]

The music was lovely - the perfect touch...

[@IrieAllDay88]

I just made this. Although I have a nasty cold right now and can't properly taste I feel it is comforting and nourishing at the same time. I have enough for tomorrow, which is good because to me dahl always tastes better the next day. I am saving this recipe along with the one from Rainbow Plant Life, because they're both really good (as far I can taste right now).

[@ThomasWalerius]

Made this last week. And my litmus test for how good something is as what I make this again. And I have to say a resounding, yes. Easy, delicious. And a wonderful way to incorporate nutritious lentils into your diet. Definitely a keeper recipe. 0:05

[@theother9941]

Nice recipe and so cheap! I like to serve it with rice and Rainbow Plantlife's garlic and coriander naan breads

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

Sounds yum! 🙌🏻🫓

[@jodietanino6955]

I always appreciate your videos as they are enjoyable to watch a chef prepare food with integrity and soul. Because it is just myself and I wanted a small portion I pretty much cut it in half and used one of the small 5 plus ounces of coconut milk. Also because I didn't have the whole spices, I did use the ground spice and bloomed it all together. Smells great. I used bob's organic lentils and the cook time is a little longer. Added a splash of fish sauce at the end and dinner is served. Thanks for the recipe.

[@geraldineconway1865]

I made this exactly to your recipe yesterday and it was beautiful. Even nicer today as leftovers. Thanks so much.

[@YEUNGMANCOOKING]

Glad to hear you enjoyed 🙌🏻👨🏻‍🍳

[@marisaworsley2241]

Omg it looks so delicious & beautiful!!! Definitely I’ll make it… I need your new book… my husband loves that dish.. he is not vegan and it is sad that people don’t realized that we don’t need to sacrifice the animals life… be vegan 🌱 right?! 🙏

[@Crabtree1844]

Say it louder, "be vegan, we do not need to sacrifice animal life."

[@0010-n8q]

I’m Hindu & Gujarati.. don’t eat meat .. religion doesn’t allow it.. i eat what the chef just made .. it’s a staple for us.. i have more respect for animals for their loyalty towards people then people have towards each other
