About Dal masar

Dal Masar, or Masoor Dal, is a staple dish in Indian cuisine made from red lentils. Earthy and flavorful, it often features ingredients like turmeric, cumin, garlic, and tomatoes, creating a rich, comforting dish that's both hearty and nutritious. Packed with plant-based protein and dietary fiber, Dal Masar supports muscle repair and digestion, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. It's also a good source of essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and potassium, which contribute to overall health. Low in fat and naturally gluten-free, it aligns with various dietary needs. However, its nutritional value can vary depending on preparation methods, as the addition of ghee or cream can increase calorie and fat content. Paired with rice or flatbread, Dal Masar offers a balanced, wholesome meal that has been a cherished part of South Asian diets for generations.
