Simple Yellow Dal by Mihir Shah

Simple Indian lentil soup - great served with rice and yogurt. Masoor dal is actually a little orange in color when you buy it but turns yellow after cooking!

Curry Lentil Soup by John Spottiswood

This is a surprisingly light and tangy lentil soup. If you are used to thick and heavy lentil soups, this one will surprise you. It's very tasty and was a great complement to the pizza recipe I just put up. This is also adapted from a Greens restaurant recipe.

Dhal/Lentil And Radish Gravy by Navaneetham Krishnan

Dhal with radish, spices and milk levels up the spicy, tangy and creamy flavors.

Gujarati Dal by Mihir Shah

This is comfort food my mom has made for as long as I've been around. She's been able to hook my kids on it; Dal is a healthy way to get protein into their diet. I serve it with some rice and yogurt. It also holds its flavor really well as a leftover snack.

KHEER WITH COCONUT (RICE PORRIDGE) by MARIA LOURDES V. LIPARDO-AYUB

This is a traditional Indian dessert. Champorado, rice porridge with cocoa, is the Filipino version of this dish. Muhallabia, Arabic rice pudding, is very much similar with this dessert.

Sesame Noodle Salad by Karen

A cold noodle salad with homemade peanut sauce. Great dish to bring to a summer potluck. Hearty enough to be an entree, but really just a salad. For those who can not go without meat, 4 oz. of cooked chicken can always be added.

Butternut Squash Soup by Judy Fisher

This savory soup is delicious and filling on a cool day. The curry and garlic give it a wonderful flavor. This is a family favorite that I learned at a cooking class given by Rachel Perelman who is the chef at my daughter's school. Serve with salad and a crusty bread.

Chinese Broccoli (gai lan) by Melinda

Excellent side dish to any meal. No bitter taste and a little crunch.

Curried Chick Peas by Melinda

A nice side dish to serve with curried chicken and rice.

Sesame Noodle Salad by Sunny Shin

I would highly recommend making them at least 6 hours before and preferably 24 hours. The noodles absorb the "sauce" and the flavors meld.
