About Dal mukni

Dal Makhni is a popular dish from North Indian cuisine, known for its rich and creamy texture. Made primarily with whole black lentils (urad dal) and red kidney beans, it is slow-cooked with an array of spices including cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala, giving it a deep, flavorful profile. Ingredients like butter, cream, and sometimes ghee contribute to its signature indulgence, while tomatoes and garlic enhance its savory appeal. Dal Makhni is rich in protein and dietary fiber from the lentils and beans, promoting muscle health and digestion. However, its high fat content from dairy components can add significant calories, making portion control essential for a balanced meal. Served traditionally with steamed rice or Indian bread like naan, Dal Makhni offers a comforting yet nutrient-dense option for vegetarians, blending delicious taste with moderate health benefits.
