Bhaja Moong Dal (Roasted Moong Dal)


By My Saffron Kitchen (Visit website)



Bhaja Moong Dal or Roasted Moong Dal can easily be categorised as a comfort food, yet its rich taste makes it a part of the menu in most Bengali occasions. There are two options for making this, one is that you can dry roast the dal before cooking it or you can fry it in ghee or oil. Choice is yours as I am not partial to either of it. If you are looking for more of such comfort food, then try this Tomato Dal.
