#Dal - Ever tried mutton keema with whole green gram / moong dal? Well this is an awesome combination. The end result was a real yummy side dish. Tried it for the first time and I must confess that it turned out very delicious. It is a very easy recipe and can be served with any kind of rice preparation or Indian bread.
