Masoor Dal / Red Split Lentils Recipe
Indian-inspired lentils your whole family would love it. Once the dal and rice are at the Required consistency, it's ready to eat or freeze. You have to Make sure the mixture is completely cool before freezing. I use freezer ice trays and small individual glass bowls with lids.
