About Dal fry

Dal Fry is a popular Indian dish made from lentils, typically toor dal (split pigeon peas), cooked with aromatic spices, onions, tomatoes, and a tempering of ghee or oil infused with mustard seeds, cumin, garlic, and chilies. Originating from North India, this flavorful dish is often enjoyed with rice or flatbreads like roti or naan. Lentils are an excellent source of plant-based protein, fiber, iron, and essential vitamins, making Dal Fry a nourishing and satisfying meal. The high fiber content supports digestion and helps regulate blood sugar levels. However, the use of ghee or excessive oil can add saturated fats, so opting for moderate quantities or healthier oils can make it lighter. Low in cholesterol and rich in antioxidants from spices like turmeric and cumin, Dal Fry combines nutrition and rich flavors, making it a hearty and wholesome dish suitable for various diets.
