Dahl. I usually use red lentils because they cook pretty quick without soaking. Boil with 2:1 water:lentils. In another pan, fry up garlic, onion and whatever spices you want. I usually use some combination of: fenugreek, mustard seed, fennel, cumin, coriander, turmeric, sweet paprika and curry powder. When the lentils are cooked, add the spice mix in, salt to taste and you’re done.
