About Yellow dalh

Yellow Dal, a staple in Indian cuisine, is a comforting dish made from yellow lentils (commonly moong or toor dal) simmered with turmeric, cumin, garlic, ginger, and a variety of warming spices. Often enriched with tomatoes, onions, and fresh cilantro, it’s served as a protein-rich accompaniment to rice or flatbreads like roti or naan. Yellow lentils are a powerhouse of nutrition, packed with fiber, plant-based protein, folate, and essential minerals such as iron and magnesium. They are low in fat and gluten-free, making them a heart-healthy option that supports digestion and energy levels. While traditionally seasoned with modest amounts of oil or ghee, excessive use of fats can reduce its health benefits. Yellow Dal is naturally vegan-friendly and can be easily customized to suit different dietary preferences, making it a nutritious and versatile dish celebrated across generations and cultures.
