Simple Onion Dal

1. 1

   In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil.

2. 2

   Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is soft and translucent.

3. 3

   Add the spices and cook for 1 minute further, stirring constantly.

4. 4

   Add the lentils, and add enough boiling water to easily cover them.

5. 5

   Sprinkle the stock cube over the top.

6. 6

   Simmer for 25 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the lentils are soft and have cooked down to a thick paste.

7. 7

   You may need to add more water if your dal begins to dry up.

8. 8

   I prefer my dal to be fairly thick, but you might prefer a runnier mixture.
