The picture is essentially of the food half eaten, with a spoon resting on the side and the colours and textures popping out, making us all feel famished. The text accompanying it reads, “Nothing like dal chawal. Nothing!”
Same, Alia, same.
Dal chawal is packed with nutrients. Previously, food writer and television cook Nigella Lawson had taken to Instagram to share a ‘soothing picture’ of dal chawal, and many people around the world consider it to be a comfort food.
Separately, dal is rich in protein and fat, and rice has carbs and fibre. Together, they are great for gut health and can help with weight loss making the digestion seamless, especially if you practise portion control.
It is said that the combination is known to be rich in antioxidants as well, along with vitamins A, D, E and K.
