This is one of the best chicken dishes.  Serve with Saffron Rice and Mint Yogurt

This is an eggplant, lentil, tomato dish with coconut paste blended in to make this a delicious eggplant dish. It is one of my favorite eggplant recipes.

I opted to do a smokey dal. Once the lentils are finished cooking and everything is mixed in, use a small hot charcoal, resting in a heatproof small dish, that is drizzled with a few drops of ghee (or oil)  to make the smoke. Add the small dish directly on top of the cooked lentils. Quickly cover the pot with a lid to capture the smoke and infuse the lentils.  Leave the lid closed for 1 minute.  Then remove the dish with the charcoal and give the lentils a gentle stir. Introducing this intensifies the flavor and makes this dish even better.The flavor permeates the lentils and creates a whole new flavor. This is not your average pot of plain lentils....

This South Indian rice is made with cashews, raisins, whole spices and onions that come together into perfection.,

A mixture of dal, rice and spices. Additional vegetables makes this even better. Serve with a dollop of ghee and papadam for a complete treat.
