About Tarka dal
Tarka Dal is a traditional Indian dish made from red lentils or yellow split peas cooked until soft and infused with flavorful spices. The "tarka" refers to the tempering of ingredients like garlic, cumin, mustard seeds, and chili in hot oil or ghee, which is added to the lentils for a fragrant, savory finish. Originating in Indian cuisine, Tarka Dal is rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, making it a wholesome choice for vegetarians and vegans. Lentils provide a plant-based source of iron and help support digestive health, while the spices used in the tempering process offer anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. However, the dish’s healthiness can vary depending on how much oil or ghee is used. For a lighter version, opt for minimal fat and serve it with whole-grain rice or chapati to create a balanced meal.
