I mean, leaving aside for a moment that it might be one of the most popular recipes on the planet, I do feel like Dal isn't appreciated enough. 😅

Just get some split lentils, e.g. red lentils, put them in a pot of water and then cook for like 20+ minutes. Add some salt. Can eat with bread.

Obviously, this can be pimped with all kinds of veggies and spices, but even in its basic form, it's creamy and has a surprisingly rich taste.
