Arhar Dal

Arhar Dal is a veg Ghar ka Khaana dish. It is shallow fried, prepared by cooking pigeon pea lentils (toor dal) until soft and then tempering them with ghee or oil along with mild spices. This Punjabi-style dal fry is light, comforting, and mildly flavored, making it a perfect everyday meal. A gentle tadka of cumin seeds, garlic, onions, tomatoes, and turmeric adds warmth and aroma without making the dish spicy. The result is a smooth, homely dal that pairs well with rice, roti, or paratha.
