Daal Masoor (Red Lentils)

Watch how to make our Daal Masoor (Red Lentil Soup)!

Daal Masoor is a delicious and healthy red lentil dish. It can be eaten alone as a hot soup, or with rice, yogurt and salad to make it a complete meal. Our version of this recipe is so easy to make.

Makes 5 servings | Prep Time: 5 min | Cook Time: 30-40 min

Ingredients:

4 cups water
1 cup red lentils
1 tbsp Jaswant's Kitchen Tadka Masala
1 tsp salt (or to taste)
¼ cup cilantro (chopped)
¼ tsp Jaswant's Kitchen Garam Masala

Directions:

Rinse the red lentils under water. Bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
Add the lentils, salt and Jaswant's Kitchen Tadka Masala
Reduce heat to medium. Let simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the mixture becomes thick and the lentils lose their shape.
Add Jaswant's Kitchen Garam Masala and stir.
Sprinkle with cilantro and serve over basmati rice or with naan or roti, and raita.

So good!

We love this recipe (can't live without Jaswant's Tadka Masala) - this is a regular dish for us. Love in combination with butter chicken, chana masala, rice & naan. Always a delicious dinner.

warming

this has been keeping us warm all winter...so good! :)

Super easy!

Just made a double batch of this recipe. It was SO good. SO easy. I’m excited to make a big batch every 2 weeks so that I always have it as an option. I followed the recipe with the products minus the cilantro (not a fan). Absolutely loved it!

Delicious Weeknight Meal

We make this quite frequently because it is so easy and delicious.
Sometimes we change things up and add some chopped onions, or tomatoes, or both to the pot while it is cooking.

Everyone we've made it for has loved it, and so we gift them the spices so that they can make it themselves.
