Masala Spiced Yellow Dal

Serves 4–6

  • 1 cup yellow split peas
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 cups chopped yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2–3 teaspoons Garam Masala
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper

Wash peas and soak in water for 10 minutes. Drain, rinse and place in a medium saucepan with water, salt and 1/2 cup of the onion. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the peas are tender, about 45–50 minutes.

While the split peas are cooking, heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the remaining onion with garlic and garam masala over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden, soft, and just beginning to brown, about 10–15 minutes.

Add the onion mixture to the cooked peas, stirring to combine. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes to blend flavors. Season with salt and pepper.
