I intended to make spinach dhal, however I ran out of the main ingredients. Instead I decided to improvise and use tomatoes and peppers to see how this turns out. It actually turned out really nice and it had a really sweet flavour with a hint of spice. This goes really well with any curry dish. I cannot help but wonder what it would have tasted with the spinach. Oh well...maybe next time.
