## Chef's notes
You can add more texture by adding chopped tomatoes or peppers. Control water level during boiling if you want the dal to be thicker or more watery. Perfect with rice or any fresh flat bread. Delicious as a dinner curry side or lunch time thicker version with paratha or other flap breads.
