Ek dal aur sabji aise bhi

At times, not only kids but also adults get bored of eating same dal, roti and vegetables everyday. So we as homechefs don't fail to try our different ways to keep our family happy with good food. This time I thought of giving a twist to my same jhat pat dal and veggies with little more colours and making it attractive enough for the family.
