I was told regarding onions and leeks that the regions in the "north or south" used "either-or" onions and leeks OR asafoetida, but not both together. So perhaps it would be with same with peppers - a regional difference in cooking?
I, too, love plain dhal as you suggested with plain rice and steamed vegetables and a plain raita (cucumber). It is one of the most satisfying meals I can think of to prepare and consume.
HEALTH NOTE: 19 days off Prilosec taking deglycyrrhizinated licorice to control GERD after meals, taking 'multiple enzymes' for digestion, probiotics to restore after a horrid reaction to antibiotics (thank you for suggesting). No coffee, but plenty of black tea. And a serving each day for breakfast of oatmeal (steel cut) and at another meal, 1-2-to 3-4 cup beans as someone suggested to lower cholesterol. My blood pressure and heart rate are around 122-76 and for the first time I ever recall, my heart rate is in the 70's instead of the 80's and lower 90's.
Several years ago DH and I both lost a great deal of weight on a regimen of Indian cooking. I don't know if they eat oatmeal, tho -- tee hee. Moong dal is a great replacement for other beans. Dee Dee
