It's Toor Dal, actually. From a packet but still very delicious, reasonably easy, vegan, and I haven't crunched the numbers but extraordinarily cheap. I should have tried cooking more Indian stuff years ago, this is great

Daal is delicious as fuck and one of my favourite gotos.
If you wanna add something to it, then I can heartily recommend finely chopping an apple and throwing it in with the oil, spices and onions in the beginning
oh shit that sounds delicious. noted
It also allows you to feel like a fancy Indian because, im told, most of India doesnt have a suitable climate for apples, so they're kind of expensive over there
