Dal (Lentils)
Slow-cooked lentils with garlic and spice — cheap, plant-based, and quietly the best thing on the menu.
Dal is the dish Indian households eat most. Lentils simmered until creamy, finished with a tempering of garlic and spice, and served with rice. It is vegetarian, high in protein, and unfailingly comforting.
