A popular moderately spiced north indian dal, consisting of a tasty combination of masoor dal and yellow moong dal. Dal fry has a good mouth feel of soft dal pieces and goes great with any paratha or roti. Quick and easy to make.

Really tasty Dal and becomes healthy when you cut the ghee quantity down. I love the mouth feel of the pressure cooked dal and this is a classic North Indian dal.
