Dal Makhani is a popular North Indian dish made from whole black lentils (urad dal) and kidney beans (rajma), cooked in a creamy tomato-based gravy. It is usually served with rice or naan bread.
The dish is prepared by first soaking and boiling the lentils and beans until they are soft and tender. Then, they are simmered with a combination of spices, including cumin, coriander, garam masala, and turmeric, along with onions, ginger, garlic, and tomatoes.
To give the dish its signature creaminess, butter, cream, or yogurt is added, which helps to balance the spiciness of the dish. Some variations of Dal Makhani may also include additional ingredients like green chilies, fenugreek leaves, or kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) for added flavor.
