Restaurant Style Dal Fry/Yellow Dal Tadka Recipe | One Pot Jeera Rice Recipe | Jeera Rice with Yellow Dal Tadka by Masterchefmom


 Hi Supermoms,

Dal Fry and Jeera Rice needs no introduction. This is my favourite combo to order in a North Indian Restaurant. 


My family enjoys the dal fry and jeera rice that I cook and are still puzzled why I would order that combo even though I make it frequently at home. My love for the yellow dal tadka/dal fry is so much and also it is always a refreshing change to eat food (not cooked by yourself :) )


Coming back to the recipes…both Dal Fry and Jeera Rice are super simple to make and I have shared the easiest and tastiest version of them. Go ahead and try it today. 


I will be waiting to hear about all the compliments you receive from your family.
