Nawabi Khatti Dal is a traditional Indian lentil dish that hails from the rich culinary heritage of the Nawabs who were the rulers of princely states in Northern India during the Mughal era. This flavorful dal combines the tanginess of tomatoes and tamarind with the richness of various spices and creamy texture of lentils. The dish typically starts with a mix of various lentils such as toor dal (split pigeon peas) or chana dal (split chickpeas) which are boiled until tender. The lentils are then cooked with a blend of aromatic spices like cumin turmeric red chili powder and garam masala. The addition of ginger garlic and green chilies further enhances the flavors. The distinguishing feature of Nawabi Khatti Dal is the use of tamarind pulp or raw mango which gives it a delightful tangy taste. The sourness is balanced with a touch of sweetness from jaggery or sugar creating a harmonious blend of flavors. To achieve a rich and velvety consistency the cooked lentils are often tempered in ghee (clarified butter) with mustard seeds cumin seeds Indulge in the regal flavors of Nawabi Khatti Dal |A tangy delight fit for royalty Nawabi khatti Dal FOODFOOD is now in the USA on DISH Network at Channel No 713.
