The ingredients for Plain Dahl are:

2 medium onions, copped into strips
Spray oil
1 cup lentils
3 cups water
3 tsp Turmeric, ground
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Cumin seed
1 tsp Coriander seed

Here is how you make Plain Dahl:

1) In a frying pan, fry off onions in a little olive oil spray until soft. Allowing them to go brown/almost burn will add flavour. 2) In a separate pot put in one cup of lentils (red, or a mix of red and yellow) to 3 cups of cold water. Bring to the boil and then simmer, stirring occasionally until cooked. 3) When lentils are almost cooked, add in onions and spices and cook on a low heat for a further 5 minutes.You can also put in chilli powder to taste and/or tomatoes (raw or tinned). If adding tomatoes don't put them in until the lentils have finished cooking as they stop lentils cooking properly. You may need to add a little more water during cooking if your lentils become too thick. I like my dahl quite thick, but many prefer a more watery consistency - it's up to you!Serving Size: Serves 2Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user EMBAR1.
