About Fish dal

Fish Dal is a flavorful dish originating from South Asian cuisine, particularly popular in Bengali households. It combines the protein-rich benefits of fish, often freshwater varieties like rohu or hilsa, with lentils such as red lentils (masoor dal) or yellow split peas (moong dal). The dish is typically seasoned with aromatic spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander, and cooked with onion, garlic, and ginger, enhancing its depth of flavor. Rich in essential nutrients, Fish Dal offers a hearty dose of omega-3 fatty acids from the fish and fiber, iron, and plant-based protein from the lentils, making it an excellent choice for balanced nutrition. However, depending on preparation, it may include generous amounts of oil or salt, which could be a consideration for those monitoring calorie or sodium intake. Served with steamed rice, Fish Dal is both a comforting and nourishing staple of South Asian cooking.
