Dhaba Style Dal Fry

Dhaba Style Dal Fry is a delicious dal made with a mix of dals. When I was planning the Punjabi Thali, I decided I would pick a dal, since I have already shared some couple of Dal Fry, Takda Dal,

I had this in my collection of dals, that I have collected over the years. When I was going through different recipes, I felt even the smallest change seem to change the final result. I have shared the Matar Paneer Masala that I posted on that day.

We are starting a new BM edition BM#76, this is part of the Kid’s Delight – Family Recipes, guest hosted by Sandhya this month. We completely forgot about Kids delight amidst the hectic Mega Marathon. So will be updating shortly.

This is the Punjabi Thali that I already shared last month.
