Brown Lentil Pakistani Curry, commonly known as "Masoor Dal" in South Asian cuisine, is a hearty and flavorful dish originating from Pakistan. Made with brown lentils simmered in a savory tomato and onion-based gravy, it is seasoned with traditional spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. Garlic and ginger add depth, while green chilies offer a touch of heat. Often garnished with fresh cilantro, this curry is typically enjoyed with rice or flatbreads like roti. Packed with plant-based protein, brown lentils are an excellent source of dietary fiber, iron, and potassium, making this dish ideal for heart health and digestion. The use of healthy fats like vegetable oil or ghee provides energy, though portion control is essential to moderate fat intake. Low in cholesterol and high in essential nutrients, this curry offers a wholesome yet indulgent taste of authentic Pakistani cuisine.
