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.

Chicken Biryani by Nancy Miyasaki

I had a craving for Black-Eyed peas this week so threw this together on the fly. It worked out really well. The chilli gives a kick but the small amount of spices keeps the flavor simple. Served over rice.
