Easy Red lentil dahl – it’s so tasty and very easy! 

I wanted a really lovely easy red lentil Dahl recipe and I wanted to write it for you. It’s taken me ages to get it just right. I’m sure you’re going to love it as much as I do

It’s easy, vegan, vegetarian, protein packed, low-fat, and delicious!! 

This makes a big portion – so please half the recipe if you only want to serve 4!

And it’s made in the Slow Cooker! It’s very easy 🙂 Just dump it all in! 

Some recipes have coconut milk added which makes a creamier Dahl, however I haven’t added any as I was conscious of fat and I wanted a very low fat recipe 

 

What is Dahl?

 

Is Dahl good for you? 

Dhal is an excellent source of iron and fibre, and a good source of protein, for vegetarians. This recipe is also VEGAN 

Dahl is packed full of nutrients and provides a good source of vitamins, minerals and fibre.

Lentils are also high in protein and low in fat so they are great substitute for meat. 

All pulses & lentils are a lower price protein too!

But to be honest it couldn’t be any easier 

 

Step 1 to your perfect Red Lentil Dahl

Chuck all your ingredients and spices into your slow cooker or crockpot 

Serving suggestions  for your Dahl 

I like mine served with rice, however I also have it occasionally on a jacket potato 

I also sometimes add frozen spinach just before I serve it too 

I’ve been know to eat just a bowl of Dahl for lunch 

 

Can I freeze my Red Lentil Dahl? 

Yes you can – absolutely 🙂 

If you have some left over, pop in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days 

If you want to freeze it for a later date you can also do that – freeze for up to 3 months

Lots of people ask me about which slow cooker I would recommend
