The advice about "just because it's soft doesn't mean the chana dish is cooked" is really helpful. Thanks. I'll keep this in mind for my future cooking.
We love Chana Dal in our house but unless you are cooking this dal with a pressure cooking I highly recommend soaking the dry lentils overnight (at least 12 hours) or be prepared to be cooking it on the hob for 2hours plus to get that wonderfully broken down creamy consistency. The tarka for this is beautifully garlicky and makes the entire dish totally scrumptious. Thank you Chetna for another great recipe 💕
This reminds me of a super simple dal that a Pakistani Auntie taught me. She only used chili powder, salt, and tumeric to cook the dal, and then caramelized garlic in butter and topped with cilantro. This was the kids favorite dal.
This is what i was going for: the taste of my wife's chana dhal and i blew it. Wish i saw this recipe before i did my first attempt two days ago. This simple recipe is exactly right. I can almost taste it from here, cape town, za. Subscribed! Fabulous
Made this last night. This is so delicious! It's soooo creamy! Mind blowing! Just make it! I did it in my Instant Pot for 30 min at High Pressure. Came out perfectly.
One of my favourite Indian dishes and when I cook a dahl at home I sometimes include extra items like garden peas, or broccoli, or small vine tomatoes chopped up, all added at the end of the main cooking, but only one option. Eaten with poppadoms and bread
This Garlic Channa Dal recipe is a flavor-packed delight! 🧄💥 The aromatic spices and the wholesome lentils come together for a mouthwatering experience.😍👌 this is my one of my favouraite indian dish❤😍. I'm excited to try this recipe and enjoy the hearty goodness. Thanks for sharing this culinary gem! 🍽😋
Chetna, I have a question. Have you ever cooked with the actual turmeric root? and if you have, do you prefer one more than the other? Orrrrr do you feel that turmeric powder gives you the same flavor and health benefits as "fresh"?
Hello Chetna Question,,,, uuhhmmm ( I feel silly asking,, bc I’m new,, very new to cooking Indian,,, im only one person in my home,, so would I be able to freeze the left over that myself n my dog do not consume,,, without it changing the quality?
Is just an hour accurate for cooking the dhal? Mine has been simmering for almost two hours and has not reached the consistency of yours. And smoking hot pan not a good idea, cooked seeds and garlic much too quickly
What would be a good replacement for fresh coriander here? I am one of those (genetic apparantly) which coriander leaves just tastes awful for. I want to try the tasty looking food but with coriander in it it just tastes like minty metal 😖
Adding your favorite herb will flavour your dal. I usually make mine with a bit of thyme and today I will be adding some fresh chopped watercress to finish simply because I have a little left in the fridge to use up.

Your new book is one of the best cookbooks I've ever bought. I want to make close to every recipe in it!

Chetna, I have a question. Have you ever cooked with the actual turmeric root? and if you have, do you prefer one more than the other? Orrrrr do you feel that turmeric powder gives you the same flavor and health benefits as "fresh"?
I have to try this! I'm thinking I of using less water to get a thicker consistency. But, will that work?
How many whistles in the pressure cooker? Can’t wait to try this!
one of my favourite foods.
Hope you will enjoy it
Hope this makes you laugh, i fell asleep while the lentals were cooking and set off a fire alarm @@FoodwithChetna
Love your blouse! Where did you get it?
Another beautiful and simple recipe!❤ thank you Chetna😊
You are welcome
This is happening. 💯💯
You had me at “Chana dal.”. You sold me at “garlic”!
Hello Chetna
Question,,,, uuhhmmm ( I feel silly asking,, bc I’m new,, very new to cooking Indian,,, im only one person in my home,, so would I be able to freeze the left over that myself n my dog do not consume,,, without it changing the quality?
yes you should be able to freeze the rest!
This is exactly how I make mine- only I add a pinch of hing.
I just wish you included the link to the video where you talk about dif kinds of lentils in description >
assume its this one th-cam.com/video/tHhxg_FLduA/w-d-xo.html
Hi Chetna. Could you tell me if you use say 2 cups of Chanda Dahl do you then have to use same amount off water or do you use 4 cups off water .
Just follow the recipe......😍
@@FoodwithChetna Thanks
For how long do l cook the Chana dal in the pressure cooker
Hai Chetna...if I can't finish the dal at once? is it necessary to separate the Dal and the spices?
Always with super fresh hot chapati or aloo ghobi parantha for me
Good choice

Dal is like a blank canvas, I think any fresh herb could work in this

Is cilantro and coriander the same thing?
Yes.
Unfortunately we can't tolerate garlic, but it's OK without tbh.
It’s so much oil/ghee my cholesterol goes through the roof
Could be one min video, rambling too much nonsens
you can go find another channel my friend
