Experience our authentic Dal Makhani, featuring black lentils slow-cooked to perfection in a rich, creamy sauce with butter and aromatic spices. This beloved vegetarian dish is a staple of North Indian cuisine that offers the ultimate comfort food experience. Rich, satisfying, and full of authentic flavors at Swagat India Bar & Bistro.
Our Dal Makhani is a testament to the art of slow cooking and patience in Indian cuisine. This legendary dish begins with premium black lentils (urad dal) and red kidney beans that are soaked overnight and then simmered for hours until they achieve a naturally creamy texture. The lentils are then combined with our signature tomato-onion base, enriched with cream and finished with butter to create that luxurious, velvety consistency.
What makes our Dal Makhani extraordinary is the time and care invested in its preparation. The slow cooking process allows all the flavors to meld beautifully while the lentils break down naturally to create a creamy, rich texture without being heavy. This wholesome vegetarian dish is not just food - it's comfort in a bowl. Perfect as a main course with rice or naan, or as a satisfying side dish that complements any Indian meal.
