Dal tadka is a spiced lentil curry that can be found in most homes and restaurants in North India. It is easier to digest and is one of the top contenders for all-time favourite comfort food, especially when paired with cool yoghurt, pickle, and jeera rice. The best thing? You can cook extra dal and store it in the freezer for up to three months.
