In Indian cuisine, dhal (also spelled daal or dal) are dried, split pulses (e.g., lentils, peas, and beans) that do not require soaking before cooking. Certain regions in Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and India are the largest producers of pulses in the world. The term is also used for various soups prepared from these pulses which are among the most important staple foods in South Asian countries, and form an important part of the cuisines of South Asia. We've made a lovely cauliflower and pumpkin dahl paired with some garlic naan from Muhgal Foods.
