Anjula's World of Daal!

I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED DAAL; for me it’s the ultimate delicious comfort food. I’m not quite sure why many people in the UK don’t appreciate the myriad benefits of lentils and pulses. Not only are these beautiful gems full of nutritional value, they are affordable, sustainable and healthy. Chana daal, for example, is incredibly low in GI and is great for diabetics”.

“I have always been astonished at how little some people know about the huge range of lentils that are available. Clients at my cookery school often cook with black lentils or brown chickpeas for the very first time. I am on a mission to encourage people to eat more of the treasure chest of lentils that are increasingly easy to find nowadays.” <

Maa Ki Daal

This is one of my favourite dishes and originates from the Punjab region. My Dad used to cook it at the ‘langar’ – the name given to the free community kitchen at the temple. There are no rituals observed in the langar and everyone eats together. Food is served to everybody without any consideration to caste, colour, creed and status in the society.
