This delicious easy to prepare vegan dish was created on a whim as our family had nothing prepared in advance for dinner. I literally grabbed what was in the pantry it. I was inspired by my mom's South Indian Lentils (Dhal) and used some of those spices to prepare this recipe. My "meat loving" family loved this dish and actually went back for second helpings. I'm hope you do the same also after you make it.
