We are all totally addicted to dal here these days. Cheaper than chips and absolutely delicious. Iāve taken to doing double so there are leftovers for breakfast of lunch the next day. This is what was left over from lunchtime
We ate it with the leftovers of last nightās Goan fish curry and beans!

Smokey dal? Intriguing!
My colleague tells mean Makhani means butter.
At the cider early this morning Gareth? Good lad!
No, not yet. Still on my morning sherry.

its true - so does mine
Dal Makhani or Dal Makhni (pronounced daal makh-nee , ābuttery lentilsā) is a dish originating from the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent. The primary ingredients are whole black lentil ( urad ), red kidney beans ( rajma ), butter and cream. The dish gets its richness from the use of cream or butter, but it can also be prepared with yogurt, milk or no dairy.
Have you read this? Iām enjoying it 
The reason your post made me think about it is that in the chapter on dal he says that dal makhani should be a restaurant thing, not home dal
It certainly paints a different picture of food in India than I had in my head (I know youāve actually lived there though!!), although I gather itās often an exaggerated position heās taking. Quite readable though.
I havenāt done the charcoal in ghee thing but added smoked paprika to my dal makhani because I read it was a reasonable substitute

Where is everyone getting their dal these days? Our local Asian grocer has shut for lock down and Iām stuck with just the supermarkets. Online Iām not sure of pricesā¦
Pah, what kind of faff blocking obscenity is that? Reasonable, like adequate is not good enough.
More ingredients, more processes, more mess equals serene faff satisfaction.
