Dal Chawal

85 Vegetarian Indian Recipes Combining the Power of Dal and Rice

Dal Chawal celebrates traditional Indian comfort food through dal and rice, which together form the foundation of a homestyle Indian vegetarian diet.

Dal is a Hindi word commonly used to describe all forms of pulses including dried beans, lentils, peas, and whole and split legumes. Chawal, the Hindi word for rice, is the perfect soulmate for dal. Not only a delicious harmony, together they form a completely balanced and nutritious meal.

Sapna Punjabi combines a lifelong vegetarian practice, Ayurvedic training, and expertise as a registered dietitian and nutritionist to create recipes that address many common dietary issues, including gut health and inflammation. This is Indian comfort food at its finest: economical, healthy, and delicious.
