EASY SLOW COOKER DAL
You're going to love this easy, creamy slow cooker dal, which is a cinch to make using inexpensive pantry ingredients! It's rich and nourishing yet bright and healthy. Serve the dal as a side dish, or turn it into a full meal by pairing it with rice and/or naan bread and sautéed vegetables (we especially love this with garlicky sautéed greens, such as kale, spinach or Swiss chard). If you'd like, you can also serve shredded rotisserie chicken alongside. I prefer to use light coconut milk in this recipe, as it gives the dal a silkier texture (you can use full-fat but it will be a bit thicker). If you want to skip the stovetop prep you can simply cook the aromatics in the microwave (I've included instructions below!). Be sure to cook the dal on low heat, not high (see the Notes below). For a stovetop version, check out my book Build-a-Bowl!

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, ginger, curry powder and cumin. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute longer. (Alternatively, combine everything, including the spices, in a heatproof bowl and microwave on high, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4-5 minutes.) Scrape the mixture into a 4- to 7-quart slow cooker.
- Add the lentils, coconut milk, water and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until the lentils are tender (they should be slightly firm but not crunchy), about 5-6 hours on low (it takes 6 hours in my KitchenAid 6 quart model); do not use high heat. Squeeze in the juice from 1/2 lime, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the dal as-is as a side dish, or turn it into a full meal by serving it with rice and/or naan bread and sautéed greens. Let people garnish their dishes with cilantro or mint, toasted cashews and/or mango chutney.
SLOW COOKER MIXED YELLOW DAL
This recipe was inspired by a Trevti Dal --"three dals" -- recipe from my favorite Indian cookbook author Tarla Dalal. My recipe is actually four different types of dal but can be adjusted to accommodate pretty any type of split or quick-cooking legume. Preparing this in a slow cooker results in an amazingly creamy and flavorful dal that can be eaten on its own as a soup, or enjoyed with its more traditional accompaniments of rotis and rice.
