Masoor Dal Thadka - Split Red Lentils with Infused Ghee and Basmati Rice

6 servings

Wholesome red lentils, freshly ground spices, dried red chilies and curry leaves unite to create this creamy, fragrant red lentil stew with a robust infused oil finish and bright citrus flavor. This kit includes everything you need for a complete meal.

This dish features thadka, a traditional technique where cooks infuse oil or ghee with spices, then pour this aromatic mixture over the cooked lentils. The result is a unique depth of flavor and aroma that defines authentic dal.

What's Included:
Detailed step-by-step recipe card
Split red lentils
