Hi Everyone for today’s blog post I want to share with you one of my favourite international recipes, Indian brazed garlic and tomatoe daal.Just over a year ago I went on a short trip to India where I was treated to some delicious homemade Indian cooking, therefore when I returned home I decided to try my hand at making an Indian dish for my family to try. This dish is now a regular addition to our family menu and I hope you enjoy it just as much as we do!.
