Chicken Curry & Tarka Dal

Chicken and red pepper curry with rice and a red split lentil dal spiced with turmeric and chili, finished with a roasted garlic butter tarka. Autumn-themed dish.
Anisha: "I'm going for a chicken and red pepper curry with a red split lentil dal, which will be topped off with a garlic butter tarka — garlic roasted in the butter, then poured over the lentil soup after." Anisha: "This is where it started for me. When I first moved to uni, the first thing I made was a red split lentil dal and a chicken curry."
Grace: "It's Friday night, and I have come in from the cold, and this beautiful plate of autumnal colours with a real heat is restoring me. Your curry, there's cardamom and green chili to the sweetness of the red pepper packed with flavour. This is definitely you cooking within your comfort zone, but is it wonderful? Yes."
Anna: "Your dal has got a real lovely, creamy flavour to it with red lentil, turmeric, and butter. I think I'd like a bit more of the garlic, but your presentation is really quite pretty."
