Pumpkin/Squash Dal/lentils curry
About:
Lentils are super hearty, so a bowlful of this lentil stew /dal is plenty on its own. Alternatively, you could serve a slightly smaller portion alongside some rice, a big chunk of bread, or my favourite winter comfort food – creamy squash
Health Benefits:
There’s a lot of flavor and a lot of nutrition in a simple pot of lentil stew. Lentils are low in fat and high in protein and fiber. But they have the added advantage; unlike other legumes they cook very quickly!

About:
This dish is so aromatic, but each piece of paneer/cottage cheese had unique and robust flavours…
The unsalted fresh white cheese is fantastic with strong flavoursome sauces, and the yoghurt in the marinade starts to break down the paneer and the vegetables, allowing them to absorb even more flavour.
It makes a fantastic snack or even a pre-dinner canapé, serves drizzled with lime juice or the dressing below as a dipping sauce.
Yields-10-12 slices
