Kali Masoor Dal has been our family favorite as I remember enjoying it with white steamed rice all the time. It is also known as whole Masoor Dal or Brown Masoor Dal.
My mom used to garnish the hot dal with Desi Ghee to make it a bit more tasty. Although, eating Desi ghee is not that healthy, but it does not make much of a difference in the growing years of your child hood.
If you are not the one who is stuck in front of TV or the latest tablets, you can burn all the ghee within minutes jumping around with your friends.
Anyways, here is the recipe with just couple of steps. Almost all dal preparations follow the same steps of boiling and then mixing with a spicy Indian tadka.
We have this Dal as part of our home's weekly menu to help get a good combination of protein and fiber. This essentially means that we are bound to eat it every Tuesday as part of our meal.
