Dal Tadka

Tadka dal is a specialty of Northern India, a simple everyday dal dish, served with steamed white rice or rotis (indian flat breads).
The Dal tadka is a regular feature for most of us while eating out at a Punjabi restaurant. However few of us realize that this dish can be prepared with ease in your very own kitchen at nearly one-fifth the price. Made with split red lentils this creamy, rich and smooth dal is tempered with spices and ghee. It makes the perfect accompaniment to rice or Rotis.
