Dahl Taka
You've had dahl before, but this is so edible on its own or go ahead and serve it with a big pile of fresh naan and some fried eggs and chilli jam.
The amazing part of this recipe is the little crunchy fried leaves on top! I mean, its all good, but that just takes it to the next level!
So get your naan on and fry up some eggs, slather this all over them, top with an egg and some chilli jam and you are good to go. Easy midweek dinner sorted! (How good are eggs hey??)
Of course this is good with all your usual suspects;
to name a few. Have fun!
