Dal palak is a protein and fiber rich food which is made with the combination of dal ( lentil) and palak (spinach). We can use the lentils of our choice and a good tempered with onion, garlic and few species makes it so yummy and appealing Indian meal. We can enjoy it with the hot chapati or rice. This is a perfect recipe for dinner.
