Although it sounds strange ( adding milk to lentils/dahl) but it doesn’t surprise me since traditionally Haleem was cooked in milk.

Re: Daal cooked with milk

Like Afia has mentioned i have heard of adding milk to sabut masoor due to their "baadi" qualities. I don't know i have heard from my fil he always says to add milk when cooking masoor daal.

I am not sure which daal it was. I was hoping
u guys would tell me. And since two of u think it's masoor,
then it must be.

So how do I make it????

Luxury
haleem was cooked in milk?
Why would they change it then??

SAJAL....i don't think its something unusual/special ....we just cook the sabut masoor whichever way we like ....like ammi boils the water with spices n adds masoor ...cooks till tender ...n towards the end adds some milk n then 'bighar'

i saute a little onion in oil ...add a bit garlic n spices ...very little tomato n then add water ....bring to boil .....n when tender add milk n then bighar with garlic

the only difference it makes is , its a bit creamy/thick .....oh n why we do add milk ....i dunno if its true ....but its said its a bit harmful for eyes n adding milk is supposed to neutralize/remove the harmful bit .....but it could be a myth ...i don't know ....but i just don't practice otherwise coz myopia runs in our family .....n i'm just scared to challenge this 'myth' :)

Re: Daal cooked with milk

Do you guys make your daal liquidy (so you need another sallan with it) or thick (so you can eat it alone with rice)?

Naps are bad for u
