About Pander dal

Pander Dal is a traditional lentil-based dish from South Asian cuisine, particularly popular in Indian households. Made using split yellow peas or pigeon peas (toor dal), it is typically cooked with aromatic spices such as turmeric, cumin, garlic, and ginger, and often garnished with fresh cilantro. It is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed with rice or flatbreads like roti or naan. Rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins like folate and B-complex, Pander Dal supports digestion, heart health, and sustained energy. It is low in fat and cholesterol, making it an excellent option for a balanced diet. However, the healthiness of the dish can vary depending on the preparation method; excessive use of oil or butter (ghee) can increase its calorie content. Overall, Pander Dal is a flavorful, nourishing choice for vegetarians and anyone seeking wholesome, plant-based meals.
