This was really flavoursome and delicious. I didn't use cardamom or star anise but it was still amazing. A great recipe for a quick and easy dinner.
Really tasty with some fresh coriander
Great recipe! thanks for sharing
My new favourite vegetarian curry and great for those on a budget and quite mild, best to follow recommendations in first comment and if you don't have all spices, I used some garam masala as substitute.
I shared this conversion with Penni Lamprey, whose recipe inspired this TMX version of her Dahl. Thanks very much to Penni for these suggestions in response: "Great stuff on the recipe, A few suggestion, if I may. I would reduce the water as it's not supposed to be soupy. I'm guessing evaporation isn't a concern in a thermo. I would also not grind the whole star anise and cardamom, rather let infuse and remove, the taste would be very strong and add the fresh coriander last, fresh herbs retain more flavour if not cooked for a long time, as opposed to dried herbs which benefit from a long cook out." As Penni is a trained chef and I am not, I'd encourage people to incorporate her suggestions.

I replaced anise, cardamom and mustard seeds with cinnamon, curry powder and paprika.
Very tasty.
Next time will halve quantities as way too much - had to freeze 9/10 of it.
