Steps:
- Rinse the lentils carefully under running water.
- Place all of the dahl ingredients including the lentils in a large saucepan.
- Bring the pot to a boil on a medium-high heat, then turn it down to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent anything sticking on the bottom. Taste and season as you go.
- Cook for 15-20 minutes, until the lentils are soft and the dhal has thickened. Taste and season again before serving. Add more water if you want a thinner dhal.
- Meanwhile if you're adding the shallots as an optional topping, fry them in a frying pan with the butter, ghee or oil. Cook on a medium low heat stirring occasionally, until golden brown, around 10 minutes.
- Serve the dahl. Optionally top with the golden shallots, thin sliced jalapeno and fresh cilantro/coriander.

Steps:
- Finely chop the tomatoes, onion, and green chili.
- Sort and rinse the lentils. There can be debris in with the lentils, so just make sure to pick that out and any shriveled lentils. Then add them to a large saucepan with the water (or vegetable stock).
- Add the chopped tomatoes, onion, chili, salt, turmeric powder, and chili to the lentils and stir well.
- Cover the saucepan with a lid, and cook over medium-low for 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.If you find the dhal becomes too thick, add an extra splash of water/veg broth as needed.
- In a small skillet/pan, heat up the oil or ghee over medium to medium-high heat until shimmery.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger and fry (they should sizzle) until the garlic has browned (1-2 minutes).You could also add a pinch of red chili powder or red pepper flakes right at the end for extra flavor/color. Read the "optional add-ins" section for other tarka dal spices - any additions will help make for an even more flavorful dish!
- Finally, serve the red lentil stew and pour the tadka over the lentils. I like to serve it this way, so it looks pretty, but I recommend mixing the tempering into the lentils before eating!You could also optionally garnish the tadka/ tarka daal with a swirl of plain yogurt, crispy onions, and/or some parsley or cilantro. Plus, lemon/lime juice!

Steps:
- Put the lentils in a strainer and rinse them under running water. Add them to a bowl, cover with water and let soak for 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, the onions, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, chile, if using, and the lentils. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Skim any scum from the surface. DO NOT ADD SALT YET; it will toughen the lentils, thereby lengthening their cooking time. Lower the heat, cover the pot with a lid and gently simmer until the lentils are tender, almost translucent, and almost falling apart, about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Whisk the lentils, releasing its natural starch, and mash some them so the mixture becomes thick. Add salt, to taste.
- Tempering oil (bagaar): In a small bowl, combine the cumin and mustard seeds. In another bowl, combine the spice powders. Have all the ingredients ready because this will move very fast!
- In a small skillet, over a medium-high flame, warm 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add seeds and immediately cover so you don't get covered in spluttering oil and seeds! Add the spices. They should sizzle and bubble a little - that's the blooming and it's exactly what you want. Don't let them burn. The mixture should bloom for about 30 seconds, no more.
- Pour the oil mixture into the lentils, standing back so you don't get hurt when the mixture splutters again. Stir to combine. Transfer the lentils to a serving dish and garnish with cilantro.

Steps:
- Place lentils in a pan with the salt, cover with the water and bring to the boil.
- Remove the froth, reduce the heat and put the lid on the pan - leave to simmer for 10 minutes. Check the lentils are cooked by squeezing them between your fingers. Once soft remove from the heat.
- In a frying pan heat the oil or butter. Using a fork pierce the whole chillies and add to the pan with a bay leaf and the cumin seeds.
- When the seeds sizzle, remove the chilli and set to one side for your garnish.
- Add the onion and garlic and fry until lightly browned. Reduce the heat and add the tomatoes, ginger, turmeric, fenugreek and the chopped chilli. Gently let the ingredients cook down for about 10 minutes to make a thick masala paste.
- Add a ladle full of the lentils (dhal) to the masala paste in the frying pan and stir together, then empty all the contents back into the pan with the lentils and stir. It should have the consistency of a thick soup but if it's too thick just add a little boiling water and remove from the heat. If you prefer it thicker just leave it on the heat to reduce until you get the consistency you want.
- Check the seasoning and add a little salt if required. Stir in the garam masala, coriander and top with the whole chillies to serve.

- Add the lentils along with the tomatoes, coconut milk and stock, then stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and cook on a medium/low heat until thick - at least 15-20 minutes (stirring often so that it doesn't stick to the pan).Taste and add more chilli if desired.
