CHANA DAL (YELLOW LENTILS) WITH SPINACH



Chana Dal (Yellow Lentils) With Spinach image

Chana dal (or bengal gram) is my favorite variety of lentil, and together with spinach with a wonderful blend of spices in this dish, makes for a very wholesome, nourishing meal.Prep time does not include time for pre-soaking lentils. (Note: this is a rather dry lentil dish, if you prefer the more wet, soupy variety then you could opt for another recipe with chana dal that I have posted: #83985)

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup channa dal (in a pinch, use canned chickpeas)
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons ghee
1/4 teaspoon black mustard seeds
2 bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
1 onion
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
10 ounces frozen spinach, thawed
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Wash lentils and allow to soak in water at least an hour before use (I usually let mine soak overnight).
  • Drain the lentils, place in a large pot with enough water to cover the lentils, bring to a boil and let simmer for 20-30 minutes until the lentils have softened (you may use additional water to do this).
  • Cook uncovered to let the cooking liquid evaporate - but be careful not to overcook such that they become mushy.
  • Heat oil, add bay leaves and cinnamon, and then fry mustard seeds till they sputter, then add onion, ginger, garlic and chili and fry a further 5 minutes.
  • Add spinach and cook for 10 minutes or until spinach is dry and liquid has been absorbed.
  • Stir in the remaining spices and salt and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Finally add the lentils, stir and cook a further 5 minutes.
