As you can see we cooked this Tarka Daal plus a Mushroom Bhaji ( with a few extra veg thrown in) in the open air on 2 camping stoves. It was absolutely delicious and very easy to cook.

With some coconut milk left over from the Caldane and some lentils in the cupboard, it was an easy decision. Adding some spinach and tomatoes add colour and joyous flavour. What a recipe and so-so-so-so easy!!
