The "burning" is crucial. In Germany we call it "Röst Aroma" means the flavor you get from letting it get slightly "burned" but not "burned like going up in flames" 😂 Actually these stews taste best when they are warmed up the next day

My Bavarian great grandmother also taught me a way to soak the beans, and dry toast them, dry with herbs and seeds in a hot iron pan before adding water for the cook-down even is commenced

One of the few non Indians with the correct explanation for the type of daal used in this Indian recipe and the soaking technique. Red masoor is one of the easiest to cook and may not even need soaking. Thanks for being authetic, chef!

You’re teaching people recipes but also how to cook. Even for us experienced cooks, it is helpful. Cooking exciting vegan and vegetable dishes is a rare skill in this country imho. Excited to try this!

This is the biggest reason why some of my friends and family don't want to try vegan food, they have to prepare it! They get fast food, convenience food, or just a hunk of meat because "easy" but the problem is they are all starting to also see the health impacts - heart disease, cancer, excessive iron in the blood, inflammation and IBS. I'm hoping to do some sort vids for my family for Veganuary and I'll be making some of Andrew's recipes for sure! Thank you ❤

"According to a bean scientist I talked to, cold-soaking beans does nothing to remove those sugars and even hot-soaking (the so-called “quick-soak” method) doesn't reduce them by enough to make a difference. You'd have to hot-soak repeatedly to get rid of an appreciable amount." LA Times

This is the second vid of yours I’ve come across in the past couple days. Love the way you structure your videos!

As an Indian, I love you explaining that dal means lentil (and chai means tea)!

But he is somewhat wrong; in many regions "dal" mostly commonly refers to the split version of the whole or dried versions of legumes.

I love your recipes and especially your love for life (the "good"), flavor and nutrition. Timely recipe! I just spent a lot of time scribbling notes on what I did to make a homemade coconut spinach dal recipe duped from [rhymes with Mole 'Tudes] less salty, more fresh and more delicious/spicy. I also looked at a lot of Indian chefs/KZreadrs for inspiration. This is the first time I have ever learned about the benefits of pre-soaking red lentils and I am so grateful! I always like your discussion after the video narration, yet today was super-informative. Excellent channel!

Thank you SO much for mentioning that Roasted Peppers could be substituted for Tomatoes - my family has an allergy to tomatoes, so we are always struggling for substitutes for tomato paste, tomato sauce, and tomatoes. We can make mushroom catsup to substitute for ketchup, but looking for substitutes for other issues. We know we can use tapioca starch instead of corn starch and cane syrup or simple syrup for dark or light corn syrup to deal with that allergy, and appreciate the tips on getting creamy textures without dairy, as corn and dairy are also allergies here.

Thank you sooooo much!!! I've always thought I'm terrible at cooking and that I can't cook anything nice. I made this meal and I was so surprised! It's given me hope that I can actually cook. # I love your channel! 🤩

Great explanation of the recipe and the “burning” of the spices. I’m a big meat eater but I’m definitely going to try this. You earned yourself a subscriber man.

I found you a couple of weeks ago it that, and I love your videos. Simple easy to follow healthy recipes and a bonus afterwards if we want more explanation we just keep on listening.😊

This recipe turned out amazing!! It has everything, flavour, a bit o spice and it’s super delicious! Plus is easy to cook. And love the quality of the video, well done!

The Nard is a real cook and I have subscribed and want to LEARN! Thank you so much! Will send photos and rate as I cook! 🎉

Pro tip: get sambar powder. Just add in your washed lentils + veggies of your choice + 2 glasses of water + 2-3spoons of sambar powder + salt. Add lemon at the end, and you are done. Try to steam your veggies and that gives a completely diff flavour

Looks so comforting just all the yummy spices and thick creaminess. You just wanna make a cup of tea grab your book and forget everybody else exist while you eat.

Awesome, I'm looking forward to cooking it next week.

Congratulations from Italy! Your channel is amazing. Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes!

Looks lovely, 4 things I would do differently - 1. use spanish onions, 2. add tomato after onions turn brown followed by salt, 3. add spice after tomato is cooked and oil separates & 4. add coconut milk after the dal is cooked and let it come to a boil again.

I agree with you!

Thank you for sharing. I LOVE lentils. I usually eat 5-7 meals a week with a main "base" of lentils. We have been "stir frying" with tumeric and ginger root. I wonder if you have considered adding some grains, like farrow, quinoa, or rice? I am way under 1:1, perhaps even 5:1. Looking forward to trying this recipe. (My other mainstays are chick peas, black beans, and kidney-what I can get dry in bulk, though lupine, for a snack, were a 25+ day ordeal.)

Dinner tonight!!! Thanks!

will try

as an indian i approve!!! so well done

Thank you, sir! Your recipes, and explanations, are wonderful. :-)

Dunno why I bother having a 'Recipes' playlist, they're all practically videos made by the one and only NardDog!

Mate, I'm just started doing videography and i really like the quality of your videos.Can you say how many and which light sources do you use for this perfect shoot😍

This looks so good and I want to try it but without cinnamon (I don’t enjoy it in savory foods) and hoping that isn’t a deal breaker for the recipe.

Why I feel so much satisfying just by seeing a whole meal without meat

Watching your videos reminds me of the song from Dead Prez - Be healthy. Thanks for all this soulfood recipes man. I do a Laola wave for this lentil dal 😊
