Hi, that was really good recipe..^_^ , bt i hv one que. i brought heavy cream n i only used it in this recipe ..so can u tell me where else i can use this heavy cream...i know it is little odd que...:)

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@saaz1997 : You can pour the cream into an ice-cube tray, freeze it and use the cream over time :)

After making this, i store the leftovers in a covered bowl in the refrigerator, but when i recook it the next day, it doesn't taste nearly as good. When i order Dal Maharani from a restaurant, it is still absolutely delicious when re-heated the next day. What am i doing wrong? Is there anything i can do?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@8Libertine8 : Dal Makhani is a dish that us usually served the next day - the flavors heighten over time. The only thing I can think of is that maybe your dry spices are not bold enough or maybe old...or try adding extra onions, tomatoes, ginger and garlic.

Can I use split urud daal if whole isn't available? And does that apply to all daal recipes?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@1slamicLife : You can, but the split Urad Daal cooks faster than the whole, so pl. keep that in mind.

Thanks for the great recipe! I did not soak the dal the night before; just pressure cooked it. You don't need the addition of butter as it is perfectly palatable without it.
