    Hi, I am from Trinidad and Tobago (but live in Florida) and we make dhal all the time. Here's a tip: Wash the dhal and soak it overnight (minimum 12 hrs) , that helps soften it but most important it removes the leptin for easy digestion. After it soaks, rinse well and cook (with all ingredient) for two hours on the stove top. You can also cook it in a slow cooker. Hope this helps.

    I love the diversity in topics and genres your book club consumes. It’s so great that you all can explore lighthearted fun reads but you all also don’t shy away from tough topics. I think that balance makes us all better in how we tackle life and relate to others! Well done! ❤

    Hey Allison, we cook dal all the time here in India. We usually soak it overnight or at least for 4-5 hours so the dal softens up. But most Indian homes use a pressure cooker to cook dal. This way you save a lot of time. Depending on the amount of dal you've, dal usually can be cooked within 20 minutes on a pressure cooker.

  • @lotimol3288
    @lotimol3288 Рік тому +7

    Soak it overnight then cook it with a pressure cooker with water and salt if you are in a hurry
    Take some oil in another saucepan and fry the crushed garlic and onion some fresh minced tomatoes or tamarind sauce as there must be some sourness to the grain and put the hot grain in the spices
    Serve with fresh coriander
    You can add potatoes and meat to it and make it a thick broth and thus a complete meal
    Urad dhal is a hard grain. It's possible to freeze some of it cooked and later add some soft grain like red lentils and some saffron, spices and tomatoes to it for another kind of Indian meal

    Hi Allison, it’s not that complicated actually. You just leave it on stove/ slow cooker for two hours and finish all your chores. You add tarka (garlic etc roasted in oil) at the end in 5 minutes. For us, it is one of the easiest recipes that doesn’t require any supervision 😊

    Good morning Allison,
    You are truly so beautiful from the heart. You radiate unconditional kindness and pure love. You are a tangible reminder that each day is a precious gift from the Lord and that there is beauty and magic in the mundane moments. You shine such a beautiful, warm light in this world. I would like to call that Jesus Light.
    I pray that this week ahead pours endless joy, laughter, sunshine and cozy moments. Thank you for always sharing your journey here on Earth. You are a very sweet blessing and gift to this world. You are loved beyond description.
    Love and Light to you, Brandon and Palmer always all the way from Long Island, NY. 💛

    Invest in a pressure cooker. The daal needs to soak overnight. Then in the morning you can add the daal into the pressure cooker with water. Give it around 2-3 whistles. It saves alot of time and energy ❤️

    Just a very random thing: this small woman owned business starfish project has a necklace right now that reminds me of you, it’s called a transformed together butterfly necklace. I actually have it and love it and suddenly thought today that maybe you would enjoy that company. They are based out of china, rescuing woman and giving them jobs. Definitely a cool company if you’re looking for any new ones to support!! Hope you have a wonderful day😊

Its a very healthy dal especially for females. Very high in Calcium. They are lot of youtube videos or blogs on how to cook Dal Makhani the easier way. Its a creamy buttery dish that you want to eat with rice or naan. Such a beautiful video and I loved how Brandon was so sweet appreciated your effort and time you took to make that dish. You are such a sweet couple and I must say that from the day I started following you I have always been able to relate to your content. I just love the dedication and hardwork you put into the videos and I must say your editing is phenomenal. Its like being there with you.
