Take yellow moong dal in a bowl, wash it 2-3 times with water, and soak it in enough water to cover the dal. Cover and keep it aside for 30 minutes.
2

Put water in a pan and heat it, once the water is hot, drain it and add lentils (dal). Let it cook on low heat. When the lentils start to froth, remove the froth with a spoon. Check if the lentils are cooked... once the lentils are cooked, turn off the gas.

Cooking isn’t just something I do — it’s a piece of my heart, served on a plate.From the sizzle of spices in hot oil to the quiet joy of kneading dough with my hands, every dish I make carries a story, a memory, a feeling. Whether it's comfort food on rainy days or something bold that sparks curiosity, cooking is how I express love, creativity, and care.Each ingredient, every flavor, speaks of passion — not just for food, but for the smiles it brings, the moments it creates, and the warmth it spreads.✨ This isn’t just food. It’s a part of me.Come join my journey:https://www.instagram.com/krishna_recipes_?igsh=MXIzdzYwMXJ0Nno3OQ==
