Amritsari Dal: How to make this delicious Punjabi dish? Recipe here

Amritsari Dal: Amritsari dal, as its name suggests, is a Punjabi dish with origins in Amritsar. It is often prepared with urad and chana dals that have been soaked overnight before being cooked with ginger, garlic, onions, tomatoes, and a combination of spices. The dal is then slowly cooked to achieve a rich, creamy texture and become soft.

In order to generate the smoky flavour that makes Amritsari dal so well-known, a smoldering piece of charcoal is added to the dish right before serving. In order to create a balanced meal, it is typically served with tandoori roti, naan, jeera rice, and lassi (or chaas).
