Masoor, a very nutritious lentil, is also very pleasing to the palate. Cooked in well-chosen spices, this subzi is not only tasty but also brims with protein, iron and folic acid. It goes well with cooked rice. Soaking Masoor dal overnight not only reduces the Cooking Time but also makes it easily digestible.
