While everyone around me is cooking scrumptious, lavish meals, I am enjoying my comfort food - "Dal - Chawal". A lavish meal works for a day or two only, but I find my solace in the staple Dal chawal.🙂

A dollop of ghee in bowl of Dal, with red chillies and garlic tadka, and that aroma can make me forget my worries and tiredness.

Either with rice, (Da - Chawal) or with roti. ( दाल रोटी खाओ, प्रभु के गुण गाओ) 🙂

So, here's my recipe of Moong Dal Tadka.
Do try it once.

Food is not simply stuff that people eat when they are hungry. Food is awesome, delicious, inventive, colorful, inspiring, and so much more. Food binds us together. You have no idea how much it means to me when you tell me that you made a recipe and loved it. My heart fills with joy. Literally.
