Navrang Dal
Navrang Dal is a vegetarian lunch from North India. It is made with three lentils, spinach and tomato. One serving has about 200 kcal, 12 g protein, 25 g carbs and 6 g fat.
Did you know? This colorful "rainbow" dal combines chana, toor, and moong lentils with vibrant veggies. The layering of flavors comes from sequential cooking - tomatoes first, then greens. The tempering includes garlic and dried red chilies for bold flavor. Modern versions might add beetroot for extra color. Perfect with bajra roti or jeera rice. The spinach adds iron while tomatoes provide vitamin C for better absorption.
