Moong Dhal Tadka
MOONG DHAL TADKA My favorite dhal recipe made with split yellow lentils. Easy to cook and taste awesome. Moong dhal tadka is made by cooking the lentils with tumeric and salt. Onion, ginger, garlic, green chilli, dried red chilli, tomato, curry leaves, cumin and mustard seeds are fried in ghee or oil then added to the cooked dhal makes this a delicious vegetarian dish. Some notes on making Moong dhal tadka: - For this recipe I'm using stove - top pot to boil the dhal. You can also use pressure cooker or even rice cooker. - Soaking the dhal is an optional but cooks faster. - Dhal thickens as they cool down. The texture should not be too thick or runny. It should be in between of the two. So adjust the consistency according to your liking. - I'm using ghee to do the tadka, which makes it more flavorful. You can keep it vegan by using vegetable oil instead which will taste just as good. Let's get cooking! INGREDIENTS - 1 cup moong dhal ( small split yellow lent
