Dal is a staple in many Indian hones across the world; it’s easy to make, comforting, and a great source of protein. Nik Sharma’s () recipe for Dal Makhani is a favorite this time of year. Creamy, rich and flavorful, it’s perfect with rice or flat
bread and served with tangy yogurt or raita.

We love it topped with our Vanilla Sugar and lemon juice, but you can play with any number of other toppings, such as fresh fruit, powdered sugar, fruit compote or jam, sour cream and more.
