If you ask Indians about their comforting food, most of them will reply that dal (lentil) and rice or Khichadi (made of lentil and rice) is their comforting food. And it is true for my family too. My son loves this moong dal and I make it often. However we like to have this Moong Dal Tadka with Roti. I like to make this dal into pot rather than pressure cooker. But if you prefer to cook in pressure cooker, cook it for 2-3 whistles. I prefer this dal semi solid and not too much of liquid. So I have added 2 cups of water and that was enough for me. But if you prefer more liquid and completely mushy dal, add more water. Moong Dal Tadka is perfect to have on those days when we want to have something light and comforting. It is quick to make and have lots of nutrient values. This dish has nuttiness of lentils and lots of flavours from spices. I am sure you will have your own moong dal recipe but if you try my version, please leave your comment.
