Daal (lentils) is a staple in many households of Indian origin. It is eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner and many Indian snacks are actually made from lentils. As a child I remember eating daal that was quite soupy, in fact we would slurp the daal curry my mum would cook for us from a cup! This is actually how authentic Bangladeshis will cook this dish; while lots of people like their daal quite thin, I prefer my daal to be thick in consistency. I enjoy eating this all by itself or with some naan/tortillas.
