Fab Foodie Mama

Rachel and I like to make Indian food a lot, and we are still high on our voyage to Chennai last summer.  Given there are no Indian restaurants local to the Keweenaw, home cooking is necessary.  Rachel hosted an Indian feast a few weeks ago and she made butter chicken, saag paneer and naan.  I made a pot of lentils (aka Dal Makhani) and some chutneys.  The whole dinner was delicious.  I have blogged about the saag before (Rachel used Foodie Mama's recipe).  When I make dosa, I will blog about the chutneys too.  The next project. There are a lot of spices in this amazing side dish, which is exactly what makes it so amazing; don't skip any if you can avoid it.  I hope you enjoy! - xxoo Foodie Mama Wedding Attire in Chennai - Foodie Mama is 2nd row, 2nd from left ,  Dal Makhani (Indian Lentils) Ingredients: 1 C dry lentils enough water to cover lentils 5 C water salt to taste 2 T vegetable oil 2 1/2 t cumin 1/4 ...
