Sabut Masur Dal (Green Lentils)
An exotic dish from Himachal Pradesh, a region in northern India, this green-lentil dal combines lentils with tamarind, cumin, garlic, and mustard seed for a rich, savory flavor. Dals are often served with curried dishes; try this one with a spicy vegetable curry, and naan, an Indian flatbread.
