1:19 π.μ.

I happen to love dhal and currys.I mean they're so easy to put together and fuss-free.You just gather your ingredients, put them in a pot, cover, let it shimmer and you have the most delicious dinner or lunch in under 30' !Also, you get a very decent amount of protein, so it's perfect for those of you who put the effort lifting them weights at the gym!


This dhal is:
CREAMY
SPICY
EASY TO PUT TOGETHER
SATISFYING


The ingredients you are going to need are very simple.Even if you don't have all the spices or you don't like one, you can leave it out.However, for maximum taste I'd advise you to go to your nearby grocery store and pick them up.Besides spices, you will need red lentils, black beans, tomato passata, onion and garlic.Pretty simple, right?

 If you decide to make it, please leave a comment below letting me know how you liked it.Enjoy!!!
