Dal Masar, or cooked red lentils, is a staple dish in South Asian cuisine, particularly in Indian and Nepali households. Made by simmering split red lentils in water until tender, it is commonly flavored with turmeric, cumin, garlic, and onions, creating a hearty and aromatic dish. Packed with plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients like folate, iron, and magnesium, Dal Masar is an excellent choice for vegan and vegetarian diets. It is low in fat and may help support heart health, digestion, and sustained energy levels. However, variations that use excessive oil or cream can introduce higher amounts of unhealthy fats and calories. Often served with rice or flatbreads like roti, this comforting and nutritious dish can be tailored to meet dietary preferences by adjusting the seasonings and cooking methods. Dal Masar is a versatile and health-forward addition to balanced meals.
