There are so many delicious dishes that combine sweetness with heartiness. And now a new one joins them: This simple, warming beetroot dal with the sweet note of apples is the perfect autumn dish.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Autumn is here and so is the craving for savory, comforting dishes that warm from the inside out. Soups and stews are definitely among my autumn favourites. And now a new recipe has been added: Beetroot dal with apple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Linsen dal or dhal is a rather unspectacular dish. You could also call it a spiced Indian lentil slop, but that sounds kind of negative. Dal is great, I love dal - my turnip dhal<\/a> lands on my plate very often! During my time in the USA with my Indian host family we ate lentil dal every few days with different kinds of lentils and spices. With this recipe I gave the traditional dish a small, but perfectly fitting and delicious twist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This beetroot dal recipe is so simple and you only need a few ingredients - beetroot, lentils and apple plus a couple of spices. The combination of apple and beetroot is something to remember. The two simply go so well together. The beetroot brings this warming earthiness while the apple offers the freshness and sweetness that compensates for the tart note of the beet. A dreamlike duo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n I must say I was never a big fan of beetroot, but this beetroot dal is simply fantastic (yes, I am praising myself). If you really don't like the beetroot, just leave it out. Red lentil dhal with apple is also very tasty. Make sure you use rather sweet and crunchy apple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of spices you should have cumin on your spice rack, as well as cinnamon, coriander and turmeric. And off you go. Don't forget the Basmati rice! <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you try this vegan beetroot dal with apple, leave me a comment or rate the recipe. You can also show me your creation on instagram (@veggiejam<\/a>).
