Have just cooked up yellow split peas to make a dahl. when looking at
receipes people just seem to put in endless ingredients, always as if more
is better. I got to wondering if you could only add two ingredients (other
than salt, pepper, ginger and garlic) what would those two be?

Well onion is one that can't be left out and a small amount of turmeric
is another, IMHO.

You mentioned garlic and ginger already but I'd add garam masala and a
number of different spices, like coriander, chili and cumin at choice.

yellow split peas *are* a type of dal: channa dal.

If you want to spice them simply when cooking, use some garam masala
(aka "curry powder") and some mustard seeds.

That's pretty much what my daddy taught me. A little butter in a pan.
Add whole cumin seed and cook until the kitchen smells good. Add
washed yellow split peas and water. Cook until done. Taste for salt.
Last time he made it, he had a leftover sausage in the fridge, which he
cut up and added at the end, just long enough to heat. That was the
only Indian dish I ever saw him make.
