Dal Makhani is the most popular dal in Punjab and can be made with low fat milk and only 1 tsp of oil. 4. Then we can have the Fatless Maa Ki Dal which does not use high fat butter. 5.

Spinach dal made with tomatoes, spinach, lentils, spices and herbs. Make it in the stovetop cooker or in the instant pot. If you do not have both you can also make this in a pot. If you want to make this recipe in the stovetop cooker, you can make it following the same method and pressure cook for 3 whistles.
It is also vegan and gluten-free. Rinse the chana dal and then add it to a pressure cooker along with 2.5 cups water (20 oz), 1/2 teaspoon turmeric and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pressure cook the dal until it's cooked and soft. On normal stove-top pressure cooker, it would take 8-10 whistles on high flame.
