Fried Moong Dal
This is hubby's favourite, whenever we go shopping he never miss to pick a packet or two of this. It is crunchy and tasty. Plus it is healthy as well. I decided to try it at home and it is pretty easy as well.
The main thing is you have to soak the dal for a good 3 to 4 hours so it swells up nicely. I flavoured this with chat masala and salt, you can add chilli powder as well. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
