Dal Curry is a flavorful and hearty dish central to Indian cuisine, known for its rich, aromatic spices and comforting texture. Made primarily with lentils such as red lentils (masoor), split pigeon peas (toor), or black gram (urad), it often includes onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and a blend of spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili powder. Cooked with water or broth, Dal Curry achieves a creamy consistency and is traditionally enjoyed with rice or flatbreads like naan or roti. Nutritionally, it is a great source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential minerals such as iron and potassium. Low in fat when prepared with minimal oil, it can contribute to heart health and aid in digestion. However, variations with excessive ghee, butter, or cream can increase calorie and fat content. This versatile dish is a staple in vegetarian diets and celebrated for its nourishing qualities.
