Dal Makhani / Kali Dal / Healthy Side Dish Recipes for Roti
Dal Makhani:
Dal makhani is a treasured staple food from Punjabi’s Cuisine. This popular dish, which is available in every Indian restaurant, is rich in protein & tastes awesome and spicy.
In this recipe, the black urad dal and red kidney bean is cooked on low heat in tomato puree and fresh cream. And I love the rich creamy texture and thick consistency. This dish combines ideal with chapati, roti, naan or rice.
