This shahi masoor dal is rich, creamy and full of rustic, earthy flavors, making it one of the best Indian dal recipes you could try.
I have used the pressure cooker to cook the dal, but you can totally use your Instant Pot or even just a regular pot if you want to.
You can make this dal more protein rich by adding some yellow lentils along with the masoor dal.
To bring a bit of tanginess to the dal, you can also add some pureed or chopped tomatoes into the mix while you’re pressure cooking it.
