About Cooked daal
Cooked daal is a nourishing dish made primarily from lentils or split pulses, such as yellow, red, or green lentils, commonly prepared in South Asian cuisine. It's typically simmered with water and spices like turmeric, cumin, garlic, and ginger, creating a flavorful, protein-rich stew. Daal is a staple in Indian, Pakistani, Nepali, and Bangladeshi households, often enjoyed with rice, roti, or as part of a larger meal. This dish is packed with nutrients—lentils are rich in plant-based protein, dietary fiber, complex carbohydrates, iron, and folate, making it ideal for muscle repair, digestion, and sustained energy. It's also low in fat and cholesterol-free, making it heart-healthy. However, the nutritional profile can vary depending on added ingredients; excessive oil, cream, or salt during preparation can increase calorie and sodium content. Overall, cooked daal is a wholesome and versatile food suitable for various diets.
