Naan and Dal... Unplugged

Or, rather, uncooked.

Ian took photos as he was making dinner last night.  But, he didn't get any pictures of the finished products.  Ha! I suppose we were just too hungry.


Naan blobs.  This recipe is simple and quick and based on Emeril Lagasse's.  Ian cut down on the oil.  Most naan recipes call for yogurt.  Maybe coconut yogurt would be good in it.  


Lentils.  They're good for you.


Dal is basically a thick Indian stew.  Fry onions, garlic, chili and cumin in a pan and then boil that mixture with lentils and other spices (like curry) until it's evaporated.  Pretty easy.

  3. You can also make dahl from split peas (as they do in Guyana)... other spice choices include maasala, a little curry powder and annise seeds, along with the ever present garlic and onions. yum, love dahl!
