  • Kainaat, Khanewal

Daal makhani at my home is one of the most favourite dishes. We use to take it directly without any roti or rice. But this daal really tastes good with tandoor ki roti.

Kali dal makhani tastes yummy with the unique addition of makhani taste. Although I love the simple kali dal, it is quite a twist.
