This, hands down is my favorite recipe I’ve ever made. I was actually saving it for my future cookbook, but when Le Creuset sent me this Sea Salt blue dutch oven and saucepan, I just had to make this recipe. The Sea Salt blue against the deep orange of the dal just speaks to me. This dairy-free tikka masala recipe is made with coconut milk, a great source of healthy plant-based fats. Also, lentils are packed with protein, fiber, and potassium.
