Food in Bangladesh map art and making Masoor Dal

(A map exploring some of the traditional foods and drinks of Albania. If you would like to buy a print of this map click on the image and it will bring you to my online shop!)

Next stop cooking around the world is Bangladesh and this is a masoor dal…daal….dhal…..red lentil soup, or curry (eating it with some roti but go with rice)
Just about the right dish for light dinner on a stormy night like tonight.

‘Next to soya beans, lentils have the highest protein content of all vegetables (just on 25%). They are valued for this reason in Asia’

Doing this project makes me realise there is a lot of skill in taking nice photos of food…I ain’t got it! This is definitely not going to be a successful food blog with these skills.
