How to Make Lemon-Cumin Chana Dal Salad with Potatoes

1. Boil Chana Dal

Place the chana dal in a pot with 3 cups of water, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and the ginger slices. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot with a lid and let it cook for about an hour.

2. Drain Chana Dal

Once the chana dal is tender, drain it using a strainer and discard the ginger slices.

3. Combine Ingredients

In a large serving bowl, combine the boiled chana dal with 0.25 teaspoon salt, the diced potatoes, freshly ground pepper, roasted ground cumin seeds, and your choice of either lemon juice or tamarind paste.

4. Serve

Serve the salad at room temperature or slightly chilled.
