Masala Moong Dal Sundal

Masala Moong Dal Sundal is a spicy sundal made with moong dal. This is an excellent sundal to make during Navrati or just as an evening snack.

I normally make moong dal Sundal and it is not very spicy. However, this time as a change, wanted to try something spicy. So used this spicy masala powder. I had made this along with Pudina Rice.

This is part of the BM#81, Week 2 on Lentil Sides and Salads.
