• Soups & Stews: Use it to naturally thicken soups or add protein-rich substance to your favorite vegetable stews. It acts as a great base for Mediterranean or Indian-style lentil soups.

How to Cook Small-Grain Masoor Dal

1. Rinse Thoroughly: Place the 500g of dal in a bowl, cover with water, and swirl gently. Drain and repeat until the water runs clear. This ensures you remove any surface dust or impurities.

2. Soak (Optional): While masoor dal is famous for not requiring long soaking, letting it sit for just 15 minutes can reduce the total cooking time and make it even creamier.

3. Simmer: Add the lentils to a pot with three parts water. Bring to a boil, skim off any white foam that rises to the top, and then lower the heat. Let it simmer gently for 20–25 minutes until the grains are soft and smooth.
