Parsi Daal

My culinary adventures through parsi cuisine continues!!..While browsing through Meera's Space, i found this simple and easy parsi daal, immediately i tried out this delicious daal with a combination of toor dhal and masoor dhal together instead of making out simply with toor dhal...Meera prepared her parsi daal with garlic flakes while i went for shallots coz my H wont like that much garlic flakes in dhals...I prepared this dhal with shallots & with less garlic flakes when compared with Meera's version as i cant imagine daal without garlic, this dish tastes splendid with simple rice topped with ghee and fried papads, also prefect with microwave jeera aloo..i should definitely say a big thanks to Meera for this delicious and healthy dhal..Obviously am sending this dhal dish to Meera's mailbox as she is hosting RCI-Parsi Cuisine, event started by Lakshmi..If u fond for garlic, have a look at Meera's Parsi daal here..As this daal dish is neither hot and spicy, 3years old infants will definitely love with rice, so am sending this healthy daal to Radhika's & Sudeshna's Food For Stages Of Life-Cooking For Infants & Toddlers...
