DARBARI DAL
I was on a long break from this blogging world and now I’m back with a bang.Sorry to be away for this long,but due to some personal commitments,I could not post for quite sometime.I made this Darbari Dal for the Kungumam Thozhi Magazine last month.Needless to say it was creamy,filling and mildly spiced which was loved by all at home.This has a combination of massor dal and moong dal which adds a special creamy texture to the dal.It is different from the usual dals and can be made as a change from the usual sides we make for rotis or parathas.When you are in the mood for a hearty yet easy meal, try this dal and let me know..
