Tan, what I loved about this video is that it wasn’t a “production”. It was just you and Rob in your house, showing us what you cook and how you make it. It’s organic, REAL, and it felt like I just walked in while you were cooking, asked you what you were making, and you just decided to show me how it all goes down. I enjoyed it immensely and hope to see more like it.
@@mishaalzk6033 how rude. I am Pakistani, and I would like to tell you to please stop spreading hate. Indian and Pakistani culture, food, language, movies is VERY similar. I can relate to Priya Krishna just as much as I can to Tan.
Mishel khan Stop being petty. Thankfully Tan doesn’t think like you and captioned the video as Indian food and is listening to awesome Indian Hindi music in the background. Stop your rudeness and hate. If you’re so jobless, find something useful.
Same. So many people don't scrape enough and it's so wasteful . Remind of Mary berry saying to Paul Hollywood to always scrape! I come from a working family, just like Tan, and you just learn these things haha
I never thought of freezing Cilantro! I put it on everything and ending up with bags of half slimy cilantro in my fridge all the time. Thanks so much for this tip!
I would chop it up before freezing, I've been doing this for years and it's way easier to portion later when you freeze the leaves chopped than as a whole bush
@@matronarona freezing chilies!?! What a great idea. I'm always sol in finding chilies most months out of the year. I actually just told my husband we need to grow some this summer so this is a great idea!
The background music- Bollywood oldies blasting out of speakers is sooo comforting. Reminds me of my childhood when mom refused to turn the volume down because she wanted to hear the music all throughout the house.
Da'al is the best hangover cure especially after New Years. I cannot eat rice as it doesn't sit right with me but I do enjoy it with a baked potato or even some fried potatoes. We need some more indian/pakastani cooking tips from you Tanny. Hope you and Rob are doing well. Keep safe chicken.
another thing you can add lots to your tharka for example green chilies chopped, mustard seeds, curry leaves and its will b even more flavorful,,,, also lots of dal is more watery because it is usually eaten with rice so reduce to your preference! also adding tomatos and onions is pretty common if you want something more than lentils
Exactly what I wanted to say. It is a waste of gas/electricity depending on your stove to cook it for 45 mins. Use a pressure cooker or an instant pot and your dal is cooked within 10 mins.
"It's turmeric. The thing that the Westerners have been excited about [as if it's a brand new thing]." Hah!😂 I almost missed the shade until you pointed out out! Thanks for that!!!👍
I learned to make red lentils from my Iranian friend. She browns diced onion and minced garlic in oil, adds spices (coriander, cumin, and a spice blend she brought back from Iran) and tomato paste, lets it cook for a bit, then adds the lentils, water, and either a chopped carrot or potato (I've made it with sweet potato before). Once it cooks down, she mashes up the veggies and mixes everything together. It is SO good!
I love a video, during selfquarantain or normally, and sharing food tips is great,... but truthfully I just simply started smiling because even if Tan has a bad hairdryer he shares his lives with us 🥰 and a special thanks to his husband for filming for us 😉👍🏻💕
Tan! Your cooking technique and style is soooo excellent! Your explanations are spot on and the clean technique of keeping all things organized and edges of pans wiped nearly made me cry. My mom taught me how to cook the way you do. Thanks for sharing!
Love Baazigar playing in the background!! Ps: This dal is different from the one my mom usually makes, which is more liquidy and has no butter, just the garlic with some onions and olive oil. I need to try this version thou!
I have fond memories of a lentil dal I had at a Nepalese restaurant in Kyoto, Japan once. And we make it here with coconut milk sometimes. But then you add the cilantro and coriander and it’s totally new to me! Thanks for sharing a comforting easy-to-digest food in a way that is new to me 😃
I ❤ Daal. And I love how you had 'Baazigar O Baazigar' playing in the background. It felt like I had walked into my own kitchen. Looking forward to more of your recipes 😋
I literally went to get groceries like 2 weeks ago when this was all starting and was planning to get lentils to make Tan's tarka dal, only to be shocked that the store had literally no lentils left. Fortunately the Indian grocery down the street saved me
thank you. I bought a big ole bag of red lentils last year thinking I'd try something new and I've barely put a dent in them. This gives me something new to try with them. That looks yummy!
Thank you Tan 🥰 My daughter gave me 8 bags so at least now I have a plan! We’re on lockdown here in MI, but my spice pantry covers at least 11 countries so I’m READY! 🥘
omg you’re back!!! love you so much lovely tan! you’ve helped me so much and i love you more than you’ll ever know. idk if my parents will ever find out about me being bi but you gave me the confidence to be myself and just live my life no matter what!! hope you’re well and safe 💘💘💘
I finally cooked green lentils that was in my pantry for a year & all I can say is that it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be to make a delicious meal. Thanks for this recipe Tan I will cook this next! :)
So happy you are posting on the channel once again!! I love when you do cooking tutorials. And I love the fact you used the original name spices on your jars.
No tomatoes or onions in the dal?? This is one of my favorite dals to eat. Our family usually makes this in a pressure cooker, so the cooking time is less. Also, just to let everyone know, this many lentils have slight variations, especially in terms of how much water to add. :)
This wa so nice! Thank you, Tan! I think a lot of people have a bag of lentils in their house and tried to make them "properly". Such a good idea showing us how to cook it!
So good! I made this tonight from a stash of red lentils lurking at the back of my pantry, with some substitutions on some of the spices to work with what I had on hand, and a couple other additions to use up some things (half an onion, mustard seeds, and some tomato paste). Absolutely delicious and so so easy. Thank you Tan and best of luck from Christchurch, New Zealand, where we're about to go into nationwide lockdown in 24 hours. With recipes like this, I'm ready!
I AM SO HUNGRY FOR THIS NOW!!!😍😍😍 you are so talented in the kitchen. Total seasoned home cook!! Love love love!!! Can you show how to make that bread?
Love this! Sri Lankans have a different version where we use curry leaves, fresh green chillies and mustard seeds! Your version looks so delicious! I am definitely going to give it a try!
So good! I just made it this morning with some brown lentils that I have had for an embarrassingly long time and it turned out great! I don't have fresh cilantro but I'm sure it would have made it even better. Thanks Tan!
Omg! So excited to see you! I’ve been binge re-watching Queer Eye and watching Fab 5 videos during the quarantine. You five just give me such a sense of calm and put me at ease. Hope you’re staying safe, love you Tan!
OMG I wish my French Canadian grandmother knew you when she was with us! Just how you move in the kitchen and talk about feeding people and putter about... You and her would have not understood each other at all but it would be such a love match - thank you for posting
Tan, you are amazing! I'm in Utah too and have been shocked at the level of panic hoarding! At least they will know how to make amazing food with the lentils they bought out. 😁 Thank you for producing content!
Tan, this cooking series makes my heart so warm and fuzzy! I’m Pakistani and rarely see Pakistani representation in desi food (its always said to be Indian) seeing you in Queer eye has been so empowering and heart warming lysm ❤️❤️
Can u believe I have lentils soaking right now to make Dahl tomorrow, normal ones, couldn't find red I'm afraid. I shall do your recipe to the letter. Thanks Tan! Love from Chile!
Is it Baazigar o Baazigar I hear in the background? Great, now it's going to be stuck in my head all day. All that amazing music in the subcontinent and your 90s kid brain fought and the later won.

The man is a global treasure, making dal while baazigar is playing in the background. 😍 Desi mood 101..
You are definitely not a homeland desi
Totally agree!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
omgg yes!

My mom would be so happy seeing Tan scrape all the butter from the pan before putting it to wash.
That’s so indian.
And Pakistani
He is pakistani🖕🏻🖕🏻
@@mishaalzk6033 how rude. I am Pakistani, and I would like to tell you to please stop spreading hate. Indian and Pakistani culture, food, language, movies is VERY similar. I can relate to Priya Krishna just as much as I can to Tan.
Mishel khan Stop being petty. Thankfully Tan doesn’t think like you and captioned the video as Indian food and is listening to awesome Indian Hindi music in the background. Stop your rudeness and hate. If you’re so jobless, find something useful.
I’m not Indian but I scrape everything off the pans. I was happy to see he did it too
Me, an Indian chef, intently trying to listen to tan cook.
My mind: “BAAZIGAR OO BAAZIGAR”
😅😅😅
That's the first thing I noticed!!
antoni watch your back, tan’s coming for you
The little rubber band at the open end of that dal packet just made my day😁
hahaha me too!
INDIAAAANS
That’s what caught my eye too!
😁✌🏼
I really loved how thoroughly you scraped the saucepan, waste not want not!
Ha ha ha.. and I was griping about not scraping it out enough!!
Yes! My Dad always said that. Seeing Tan not waste any bit made me think of him.
@@SheilaR.08its a typical indian thing that roasted tadhka gives roasted flavour to dal
Same. So many people don't scrape enough and it's so wasteful . Remind of Mary berry saying to Paul Hollywood to always scrape! I come from a working family, just like Tan, and you just learn these things haha
I never thought of freezing Cilantro! I put it on everything and ending up with bags of half slimy cilantro in my fridge all the time. Thanks so much for this tip!
Just put it in an airless ziploc bag and store it in the freezer. Lasts longer.
I would chop it up before freezing, I've been doing this for years and it's way easier to portion later when you freeze the leaves chopped than as a whole bush
I’ve always learned that it’s better to dry parsley and cilantro than freeze it.
I also freeze my chillies.
@@matronarona freezing chilies!?! What a great idea. I'm always sol in finding chilies most months out of the year. I actually just told my husband we need to grow some this summer so this is a great idea!
The background music- Bollywood oldies blasting out of speakers is sooo comforting. Reminds me of my childhood when mom refused to turn the volume down because she wanted to hear the music all throughout the house.
I mean no disrespect in any way by this. You standing up on your tip toes to see into your pot is the cutest thing ever. 💗
I just wanna run into Tan france at an indian store buying Daal. Is that too much to ask?
I will happily binge watch Tan's cooking show forever
Da'al is the best hangover cure especially after New Years. I cannot eat rice as it doesn't sit right with me but I do enjoy it with a baked potato or even some fried potatoes. We need some more indian/pakastani cooking tips from you Tanny. Hope you and Rob are doing well. Keep safe chicken.
Liam Alan Lindsay it’s just daal! no need to add the apostrophe
Beautiful easy recipe, you should do this one a week. Thank you Tan! Keep safe 💗
The way he is making Dal is far too complicated & too many spices .
another thing you can add lots to your tharka for example green chilies chopped, mustard seeds, curry leaves and its will b even more flavorful,,,, also lots of dal is more watery because it is usually eaten with rice so reduce to your preference! also adding tomatos and onions is pretty common if you want something more than lentils
That all sounds delish! Thank you for the wonderful ideas. I always make soup with red lentils, but can't wait to try it this way.
Sami Prakash Thank you! Sounds delicious.
This was exactly the kind of tharka my mom used to make!
A pressure cooker is a must.. it'll save 60-70% energy and time..
Exactly what I wanted to say. It is a waste of gas/electricity depending on your stove to cook it for 45 mins. Use a pressure cooker or an instant pot and your dal is cooked within 10 mins.
100%. As a South Asian he should have that. Every Indian and Pakistani I know has that in their homes. He's westernized. 🤪
3:55 😂😂 so true tho
also this is the most helpful shade i've seen thrown at people lol
yeah- informative shade
I was thinking the same, so condescending but also helpful lol
"It's turmeric. The thing that the Westerners have been excited about [as if it's a brand new thing]."
Hah!😂
I almost missed the shade until you pointed out out! Thanks for that!!!👍
Pre Soak dal in water for 10-15 mins n then cook it in a pressure cooker, the total cooking time will be max 10mins including giving tadka.
I learned to make red lentils from my Iranian friend. She browns diced onion and minced garlic in oil, adds spices (coriander, cumin, and a spice blend she brought back from Iran) and tomato paste, lets it cook for a bit, then adds the lentils, water, and either a chopped carrot or potato (I've made it with sweet potato before). Once it cooks down, she mashes up the veggies and mixes everything together. It is SO good!
nice!! we do have the same version in India known as Tomato Dal. The way you explaining it looks to me like your friend's dish is promising..!
Love how his pronunciations are so clear.
His voice is so relaxing to listen to. I love Tan!!
Tan's got on his doomsday prepper outfit on 🙂I'm currently watching Stand Up 2 Cancer British Bake Off -- can't wait to see his episode!!!
I am an indian who knows how to cook veryyyy well but still i am watching this because #quarantined 😂😅
Same lol
Somebody literally came to my house yesterday and gave me a packet of red lentil beans. How did you know?
When he said daal can be stored for atleast a month, nahhhhh bruuhhhhh more like a year🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mishel khan well he’s not wrong
I think he means the cooked meal.
I was so distracted by the song "Bazigar" playing in the background that I hardly understood what Tan was saying.. 🤭
Oh, my gosh! Thank you! I was wondering that all the time whether I am just overhearing things. Good, my ears aren't ringing! :D
😂😂 same
"This is good for at least 20 curries" he says, holding up a LARGE bag of spicy chili powder. 😂
Ikr😂😂
That's not large. Probably just.. 250g?
He is right though. I finish it within 10 days
That bag won’t hold up for more than five days with me.
I love a video, during selfquarantain or normally, and sharing food tips is great,... but truthfully I just simply started smiling because even if Tan has a bad hairdryer he shares his lives with us 🥰 and a special thanks to his husband for filming for us 😉👍🏻💕
if you soak the lentils in water for an hour before cooking it doesn’t take as long to cook
I just love how Tan's cooking with some old timey bollywood tunes playing in the background
Hahahaha Baazigar playing in the background is giving me life
You know you love Tan when you enjoy watching him in make dhal , a recipe that you've known forever 🤩😋
Literally just bought everything spices too from .99 cent store San Diego. It's affordable and now I have a new recipe.
Check out the channel bong eats for food recipes
I never thought about freezing herbs. That’s great!
Tan, we deserve a livestream:) hope you’re safe and well!
Tan! Your cooking technique and style is soooo excellent! Your explanations are spot on and the clean technique of keeping all things organized and edges of pans wiped nearly made me cry. My mom taught me how to cook the way you do. Thanks for sharing!
Finally got a quiet day so got to follow your directions! Love! I want to follow this video every time so please never take it down ❤️
Love your charisma! Always nice to listen to
Tan makes his own roti ❤️🙏 this guy is a legend
I love how 'Baazigar' is playing in the background. Nicely done. Love your videos. You are the best.
Love Baazigar playing in the background!!
Ps: This dal is different from the one my mom usually makes, which is more liquidy and has no butter, just the garlic with some onions and olive oil. I need to try this version thou!
Sha came to down to confirm this fact only - baazigar playing in the background!!
Sounds like your mom is from the north.
Your mom uses ghee right?
@@jayjohnson8403 nah olive oil, she will brown onions and garlic in some oil and then add that to the dal
Gurl!!!! I relate
I have fond memories of a lentil dal I had at a Nepalese restaurant in Kyoto, Japan once. And we make it here with coconut milk sometimes. But then you add the cilantro and coriander and it’s totally new to me! Thanks for sharing a comforting easy-to-digest food in a way that is new to me 😃
4 years later and I am salivating over this Dahl! Yummmmmmmy!! ❤
The background song " bazigar o bazigar .... " Took my heart ❤️
AAAH YES ANOTHER RECIPE. plus i love seeing your kitchen .
I ❤ Daal. And I love how you had 'Baazigar O Baazigar' playing in the background. It felt like I had walked into my own kitchen. Looking forward to more of your recipes 😋
The toppings on daal is what makes it special. If I love you I’ll add chopped almonds and golden sultanas. If I like you you just get regular raisins.
Comfort food! Love it!

Adding cumin to everything I ever cook is my fatal flaw
Somebody else who understands that cumin works on everything!
@@AdaSoto I do the same! Add cumin to everything. Also with herbs I add thyme everywhere.
Me too 🙂 jeera is my favourite spice!
When everything is going wrong, cumin is always the savior.
Ada Soto yes guys cumin nation rise
tan stay reppin the culture and i am forever here for it also the song baazigar playing in the background got me weak tooooo
Thank you Tan 🥰 My daughter gave me 8 bags so at least now I have a plan! We’re on lockdown here in MI, but my spice pantry covers at least 11 countries so I’m READY! 🥘
