I love Dhal! I have it every few weeks at least, so very grateful for this simple variation for no extra trouble. The toasted coconut and ginger really add to it. Really thickens it up too compared to the usual Dhal, which I am a fan of. Will be making again!

Thanks to the Spicery I am becoming a fan of Dhal. Given I like both coconut and ginger, this one seemed an obvious choice. I was delighted by the results. I followed the "raise your game by..." suggestion and used coconut oil to toast the ginger and desiccated coconut. It sizzles and brings a hit of fragrance, flavour and drama to the table.
