Lachko Dal is a majestic and profoundly aromatic Gujarati heritage meal, uniquely celebrated for its thick-lentil core and intense ghee-turmeric profile. This recipe features specifically prepared batches of yellow moong dal cooked to a bold and dense consistency with minimal water.

The taste is intensely rich and savory-buttery, with the ghee providing a unique professional-grade indulgent lift. Best enjoyed hot with rice.
