Indian Dhal With Tomato and Aubergine image

A wonderful side dish to go with your curry. Dhal (lentils) are an important food in India and are eaten at most meals. This recipe adds a new dimension to Dhal with the added tomato and Eggplant. One of my Indian friends sent me the recipe and I'm very pleased that he did. The preparation and cooking is so simple anyone can cook this.

This dish was a bit too time-consuming to make. It took me over an hour to cook the dhal and the aubergine. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone who is short on time.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I had to add a lot of extra spices to make it flavorful enough. The aubergine was also a bit too mushy for my liking. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone who enjoys flavorful and textured dishes.
