Palak Dal (Split Pigeon Peas with Spinach)

The commonly cooked dal Palak in winter is quite easy to make and very flavourful. This can be paired with rice/roti or just have as a lentil soup for that extra protein in cold.
Generally people boil the Palak along with dal but I cook it separately as part of tadka, which retains the colour and freshness of Palak, in turn makes this dish more beautiful & flavourful.
