I have three children 4 and under, so I don't have a lot of time. I used canned organic lentils and canned chopped tomatoes to cut my time in half. I just tasted it and it is very yummy. I'm sure it tastes even better your way. Thanks, Heather HI,

We also got addicted to Dal Makhni here in Kuwait...but at Mughal Mahal. Been looking for the recipe ever since...Thanks so much! <em>They're called Kali Urad in Hindi Roxanne, it should be easily available at Indian grocery stores. Mmm...

My teenage daughter and I would like to learn some Indian cooking (this recipe in particular). We have only ever eaten Indian food in restaurants but love it, love it, love it.. Also, we want to wow our friends, non of whom think we can pull this off. Can you suggest an easy-to-use beginners cookbook? Any other suggestions? Cheers, Teresa and Tasha Hi.
