    Hyderabadi Khatti Dal Recipe

    So I am starting with this simple hyderabadi dal which is so easy to make but delicious and healthy to eat. There are lots of flavourings going around this dish like garlic, ginger, curry leaves and all yummy stuffs. This dal gets its life by the seasoning which we put in last, try to make the seasoning with ghee which gives an awesome flavour to it.

    How to Make Khatti Dal Recipe

    1. Wash moong dal in lots of water until all starch goes away from it. Let it soak for 15 mins.
