Made dal for a potluck on Friday, immediately fell back off the wagon and into full blown dal addiction, so I made it again tonight. Luckily, this dal recipe never fails, so it's easy to satisfy my frequent craving. Uses a hell of a lot of spices though, as you can see here.

In conjunction with my ridiculously good rice cooking directions (it doesn't feel right to call it a recipe, you know), you end up with a wonderfully satisfying meal, easy.

(And yes, it's now clear why I reposted that rice recipe, isn't it? I'll probably do it a third time, as well, with better photography. And then a fourth in video form. The more people learn how to make a non-crap rice, the better. Rice is bloody delicious when it's handled right, and it's SO EASY to do.)
