When there's no time to grocery shop...

...it's always good to know that, with a bag of yellow split peas and a spice cupboard brimming with exotic flavours, supper is never far away. This recipe for tarka dal by the gorgeous Anjum Anand is one of my favourite go-to comfort meals: rich, tasty and warming. Perfect heaped in a bowl with some basmati rice for easy Sunday eating. All you need to add are your favourite film and a glass of wine - heaven!
