I made my own version of this. The method, if not the flavourings, were much like a tadka dal.

I sliced the carrots into 1cm coins and added some dried marjoram before I roasted them. I cooked the lentils on their own (with just water). Meanwhile, I gently fried lots of finely sliced onions until golden brown, then added some garlic powder and coriander powder and salt. After frying for a moment until fragrant, I added a couple of seeded, diced tomatoes. Then some chili paste and tomato paste. I mixed this into the cooked lentils, stirred in the carrots when they were done, and served it on some rice. Yum.

mmm...I've had this in my recipe box for a while now, but I'm curious:

Do the carrots get mushy by the time the lentils are cooked? it seems like roasting AND simmering in water would result in unpleasantly overcooked carrots.
