Yellow Moong Dal Recipes for Indian Food
Parathas/rotis - Moong dal and Indian food go hand in hand. It is used as various forms in parathas, rotis, subzis and dals, breaking the common misconception that moong dal can only be used to make the dal-chawal.
Yellow moong dal cooks fast while still remaining a little crunchy. That comes in handy while making Yellow moong dal and Spring Onion Parathas or even Cabbage dal paratha as it gives an excellent flavor and texture. If you want to avoid any other vegetables, you can simply make Dal Paratha, where the dal is sautéed with spices and then filled.
