Native Vegan Simple Yellow Dal – aka Dalitoy

The absolute staple of Konkani cuisine- Dalitoy (simple yellow dal)! Our kids basically live on this – which I’m not too upset about, because it is full of #plantbasedprotein and #fiber. Of course it is naturally #lowcarb as well.

Recipe:
1 cup toor dal
2 cups water
1 tsp coconut oil
Handful of fresh curry leaves
1 tsp mustard seeds
2-3 split green chilies
Pinch of asafoetida (hing)
Salt to taste

Cook dal in pressure cooker
Make tadka (tempering)— heat coconut oil and add mustard seeds until they sputter. Quickly add curry leaves, hing and green chilies. Pour tempering in cooked dal- add salt to taste, serve hot over rice! Or, sometimes I have it as a soup ?

MUNNI TRIVEDI

My condition was progressively deteriorating over the past 2 years. I’d been good at taking my medicine and exercising so knew I should have felt better. My arthritis and scleroderma were really affecting my quality of life. Increasing pain and fatigue were wearing me down.

Dr. Jenny and Ajoy came well-recommended so I got in touch. I completed a short questionnaire before my consultation. Covid meant it was all done over VC. They put me at ease, and it was like we were in the same room. They asked all the right medical and lifestyle questions without judgement. They devised a plan which was holistic, realistic and easy to follow. Their gentle and knowledgeable coaching kept me on track.

The resulting decrease in swelling and pain has given me a new lease of life in a few weeks. I feel so much better and look so much happier. I felt they were genuinely interested in my well-being. Happy to highly recommend them.
