Dabble cooking Indian? Meet Vahchef.

I've been a long-time wannabe Indian cook--I can make a decent Chana Masala, but I had never ventured into breads nor made a dal that could stand on its own. That is until I found Vahchef. Vahchef is an incredible chef from one of India's top restaurants. He covers the little details that make the difference from dry dals and soggy seasonings--to splending dishes and puffy poori's. Here's a taste of his style--making Tomato Dal (this is absolutely delicious and easy to get right):

If you aren't yet inspired by Indian cooking--take a look at Vahchef's face as he tastes his dishes. He's the only cook that makes me laugh (he really loves his food) and cry (wish I could eat what's he's just made too!). More on Vahchef's Youtube channel:

I love the vah chef too. I'm slowly working my way through his impressive list of recipes. That link you have to the vahreyvah.com is wrong though, you want vahrehvah.com/
Cheers!
