Tasty Dal Makhani

One of the favorite of all the north Indian food lovers is a brown colored lavishing dish which is tasty yet healthy and is a must accompanying one with paneer and potato dishes. Dal Makhani, with a Punjabi name and a mouth watering taste caters as the main dish for Punjabi north Indian food.

I have my own ways learnt from my mother to make this lip-smacking dal making it healthy and quick to be made.
