This is an Andhra based,simple and easy one pot recipe.It can be made under 30 minutes and its a super healthy dish packed with the nutrition of dal & palak leaves.When I tasted it for the first time in Nandini restaurant in Bangalore, I became a fan of this dal. So tried to recreate it at home in a quick and easy way. Its a great recipe for Bachelors and working women.You can make it spicy by increasing the green chillies but I have reduced the chillies as per my family’s taste.
