Dishoom House Black Daal

Melt-in-the-mouth Dal Makhani is a traditional North Indian dal recipe using black lentils (urad). My version is slow cooked for up to 15 hours until the lentils are creamy and perfectly spiced. You won't miss restaurant-style Dal Makhani once you've tried this homemade recipe. Make it in the Instant Pot to make prep easy, or simmer in a conventional pot. Serve with naan, roti or rice. This Dal Makhani recipe is utterly delicious!
