 
  High Protein red lentil dahl
This high-protein Pumpkin Red lentil dahl is a heart and flavourful meal for the cold winter evening.
It was a cold and rainy evening when i first made this dahl. I had hear so much about this hearty and flavourful dish, and i was excited to finally try it.
I took my first bite and was immediately blown away by the depth of flavour. The creamy pumpkin and the tender red lentils were perfectly balanced by the bold spices, and i could taste the hint of tomato and coconut in every bite.
Made with nourishing red lentils and creamy pumpkin, this dahl is packed with plant-based protein to keep you feeling satisfied and energised.
The aromatic blend of spices, give this dish a rich and aromatic flavour, while topping of crushed almonds adds a crunch texture
