Recipe for Grandpa’s Dal Curry with Bacon
Dal curry with Bacon! Im not quite sure if you've ever heard of this combination or this dish before! I was introduced to this dish by my Late Maternal Grandfather(My Papa) when I was a little kid. Whenever he knew we were coming over, he would fill the house with delicious goodies for us grandkids and he would either cook something himself or ask Nana to make something special for lunch. This Dal curry with bacon was one of his many favourites. It is a combination of Curry paste, Red Dal(lentil) and Smoked bacon! This is a family recipe and I was taught to make this by my Mom, because I was too small when my grandparents passed away to have learnt it from them. As always, I'd love for all of you to share in the joy of my family recipes😊 I hope you enjoy this super flavoursome curry as much as my family does, till 😊😊

Recipe for Dal Gosht
My Bitter Better and I have been craving a good Dal Gosht ever since we came to Dubai 2014. Whatever we’ve tasted are either too Masaledaar or too bland. Our favourite Restaurant in Bombay is Hill View Restaurant in Borivali, which makes the yummiest Dal Gosht we’ve ever tasted. I’ve seen many recipe videos of Dal Gosht but for some reason I’ve never had the confidence to give them a try with the common fear of ruining the dish. So, very recently when my family was here in Dubai my sister-in-law, Sophie, said that her cousin, Sera had made Dal Gosht for lunch and my eyes lit up in excitement. 1) Because I knew I could pester someone to teach me to make Dal Gosht and 2) I knew for the fact that the dish won’t get ruined! My Bigger Bonus was when Sophie said that she makes Dal Gosht too and it's sooooo simple to make! OMG OMG! So the first reaction both gave me when I asked them for the recipe was “Arey kuch bhi masala dalo” hahahaha that was the first note my mind registered that “This is going to be really simple” then both, Sophie and Sera explained their techniques and the various other techniques in which I could make Dal Gosht, choice was totally mine. From the entire conversation with both girls, the main points I picked up were -Lots of Onions barabar se saute karo -Meat Masala -Chana Dal se better taste aata hai -Separate cook karo or together, dono kar sakte hain -Zyada haddi wala mutton use karo, it tastes better -For tanginess, use tamarind -Add some Dudhi too, it tastes superb(but I skipped this step) With all this running in my brain, I couldn’t wait any longer and decided to give it a shot before I forget all the important tips. I Came… I Tried… I Conquered!! Hahaha So here’s how I finally made my First ever Dal Gosht ALL THANKS to Sophie and Sera for their most valuable tips and techniques and most of all for giving me the Josh that I won't go wrong 😊 For some Unique, Super Delish and Fun Recipes, you can subscribe to Sophie's Youtube Channel Sophie's Kitchen Love https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sophies+Kitchen+love and Recipe Blog http://www.sophieskitchenlove.com/
