An easy peasy everyday Daal recipe from the kitchens of Andhra. It's a tasty one made with Bengal Gram. A very simple yet a flavourful and a filling one. A comfort food by all means. It's an excellent option for everyday meals. It goes well with a steaming hot plate of simple boiled Rice and Ghee. Pickle and Poppadoms are the best accompaniments to it as well.

Tamarind also can be used if desired. A small piece of it can be added to it whilst the pressure cooking. It's not a must. Some people like it that way too. But since it's a simple Pappu or Daal, it's amazing the way it is made and relished. Pappu is nothing but Daal in Telugu. That's it. As simple as that. Easy and a delicious side dish for everyday.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
