Red Lentil Dahl is a comforting and budget-friendly Indian-inspired meal that’s sure to fill you up. It’s a simple one pot recipe loaded with protein-packed lentils, warm spices and aromatics, and layers of earthy flavors.

How to make  Red Lentil Dahl 

Prep the lentils. Add the lentils and some water  and swirl them around. Stir the cleaned lentils, water, and half of the cilantro into the pot. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer.

Saute the aromatics. Saute the onions in an oiled pot until they’re soft. Next, add the garlic, ginger, and spices. Cook until fragrant.

After about 15 minutes, add the tomatoes and green chilies. Let the dahl cook for another 10 minutes. Take the pot off the heat and add the rest of the cilantro, salt, and lemon juice.

The dahl will thicken slightly as it cools, after which you can scoop some into a bowl with basmati rice and vegan naan on the side. Enjoy!
