Lasooni Moong Dal Tadka is a garlicky dal made with moong dal and is mildly spiced. This can be served with pooris or rotis and is very quick to make.
In the current cooking agenda that I have until April, I have too many pooris or rotis to make. So one of the frequent side dishes to make for this bread is some dal with lentil.
When I made a spiced stuffed poori, this Lasooni Moong Dal paired very well. When it is a poori, I have to make a chana masala and it ends up that for elders I make some dal. Since I love garlic, the flavour of garlic with moong was heavenly.
This is for the second day of Dazzling Dals for the BM#110.
