About Loki chana ki dal

Loki Chana Ki Dal is a nutritious and flavorful dish from Indian cuisine, combining bottle gourd (loki) with split Bengal gram (chana dal). This hearty stew is lightly spiced with turmeric, cumin, ginger, and garlic, offering a comforting and wholesome meal. Bottle gourd is low in calories and high in water content, making it hydrating and great for digestion, while chana dal is a rich source of protein, dietary fiber, and essential minerals like iron and potassium. Together, they create a well-balanced dish that supports gut health, boosts energy, and aids in maintaining stable blood sugar levels. Typically cooked in minimal oil, this dal is versatile and can be paired with rice or roti for a complete meal. However, the addition of too much oil or butter during preparation may increase its calorie content, so moderation is key for a healthier option.
