Dal Bhat ~ Nepali Dish

Dal Bhat
Dal Bhat is a traditional meal for Nepal & also for few other countries. Dal means cooked lentils & bhat means rice here. When they both are combined it's comforting & awesome. I used masoor dal, as it is easy to cook on stove top in very less time. The spices might vary, but the addition of garam masala powder made this dal more flavorful.
