Description: Indian Dal, also known as Pappu or Paripu, is a term that refers to legumes (lentils, peas, or various types of beans) which have been split. The word Dal is used to name the thick stew that is prepared from the legumes. Dal is an important part of Indian, Nepali, Pakistani, Sri Lankan, West Indian, and Bangladeshi cuisine. The manner in which it’s cooked and presented varies by region. Dal is usually prepared with rice and in India is served with a wheat flatbread called Roti. In South India, Dal is primarily used to make the dish called Sambar. It is also used to make Pappu that is mixed with Charu and rice. Use our special Indian Dal seasoning to enhance flavors of any Dal soup or stew.

    Great curry mix!

    I’ve been using this spice for all my curry dishes! I like a milder but tasty curry mix and this is it. Many curry mixes I’ve tried are too spicy!

    I’ve been using this for years and love it!!!

    UPDATE:
    After trying the recipe for himself, we got this review and helpful additions on the Indian Dal Seasoning

    I made the dal soup recipe you sent me last night. It was absolutely delicious, and easy to make. I made a few minor tweaks to the recipe. Here is my annotated version. You should put the recipe on the page that offers the spice mix.

    Indian Dal Soup

    (30 min prep; 45 min cooking) (Makes 5-6 bowls.)

    Ingredients:

    3 Tbsp vegetable oil
    1 cup chopped onion (1/2 large onion)
    4 Tbsp Indian Dal Seasoning (yes, 4 tablespoons) from Whole Spice
    1 cup lentils (any kind but green)
    1-2 cups chopped carrot (about 2 medium)
    1-2 cups chopped yellow zucchini (1 whole)
    1 tsp light salt, if not using soup base concentrate for stock
    6 cups chicken stock
    1 Roma tomato, chopped
    1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

    In a large pot heat up the oil on medium-heat, add the carrot, and then add the onion. Fry until golden brown. Add Indian Dal Seasoning, salt (if needed) and stir for 10 seconds. Now add the lentils and zucchini then stir for 1 minute. Add the stock then cover and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cook for 45 minutes. Add the tomato and half of the cilantro. Serve the remaining cilantro with the soup to use as desired.

    Serve with flatbread, pita bread, or toast. Absolutely delicious!
