Chana Dal Fry — as easy as 2-minute noodles

“It's the love you put into it.”

Some dishes don't just feed you — they remind you of someone. Chana Dal Fry (our Comfort Bowl Chana Dal Fry) is one of them. And if you're someone who's forced to cook but loves to eat, it's as easy as 2-minute noodles.

💭 Does this remind you of something? A kitchen, a person, a rainy evening, a first bite. Tell us your memory — we read every one.

Happy food is healthy food

We don't split the two. The taste and the goodness are the same thing. The body is waiting to be heard.

You'll need: 1 pack of Chana Dal Fry · 300ml Water | 15g or 2 spoons ghee | 2g or1/2 spoon grated ginger | 2g or 1/2 spoon green chilies, finely chopped | 2g or 1/2 spoon of garlic, minced | 70g or 1 small sized onion, finely chopped | 60g or 1 small Tomato, chopped finely | 20g or 2 spoons chopped coriander

  1. Wash and soak the Dal for 10-15 minutes (optional but recommended)
  2. In a pressure cooker, add the Dal, Magic Mixx (from the packet), and water
  3. Pressure cook for 15 minutes or until 3 whistles
  4. Allow the cooker to cool and open it
  5. In a small fry pan add the ghee, add grated ginge, minced garlic and chopped green chillis and sauté for a minute until fragrant
  6. Add chopped onions and tomatoes and cook until they soften and the ghee starts to separate
  7. Add this cooked mixture to the cooked dal and stir well
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh coriander in an attractive bowl
  9. Optional: Add your own creative tadka with extra love and flavor!
  10. Tip: Adjust consistency to your liking by adding hot water

👩‍🍳 Chef's tip: Serve the dal hot with steamed rice or jeera rice. Garnish with extra chopped coriander and a squeeze of lemon for a tangy kick. Pair with papad, pickles, roti, or naan for a complete meal.
