Half Bowl of Dal Makhani is a classic North Indian dish made primarily with whole black lentils (urad dal), kidney beans (rajma), butter, and cream, all simmered together in a flavorful blend of tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and Indian spices. This iconic dish originates from Punjabi cuisine and is celebrated for its rich, creamy texture and hearty flavors. Nutritionally, it offers a good source of plant-based protein and dietary fiber from the lentils and beans, supporting digestion and muscle repair. However, it is also relatively high in saturated fats due to the butter and cream, which can impact heart health if consumed frequently or in large portions. A half bowl serves as a manageable portion to enjoy the dish’s nutritional benefits while moderating fat intake. Pairing it with whole-grain bread or brown rice can enhance the dish’s overall nutrient profile.
