Meethi Moong Daal

#week4of5 #cookpadindia #Hyderabadi This Daal as the name suggests is made with Yellow Lentils or Moong Daal and is so called because of the fact that it is made without Red Chilli powder and Tamarind. This is the reason, that it's called Meethi in Hyderabad. This particular simple Daal is a favourite Breakfast as well as a Dinner dish and is usually relished with Rotis. In this recipe, torn pieces of Rotis or Phulkas are added to the Daal and mixed. It should be completely soaked in Daal. And then it's eaten. This is the way, it's enjoyed in my City. And is an absolute favourite of everyone, be it young or old. It's relished in this way only and let me tell you one thing that it's best enjoyed in this way alone. Try this for your families and friends. Iam sure they will definitely love it. Kids will surely be more than happy to take a bite. And not only that, it's the best thing for our elderly too. They can enjoy it without any difficulties in chewing. So all in all, an excellent one to choose for your next meal.
