Moong dal earns its place in an everyday pantry through flexibility. It can become a soft, comforting dal, a one-pot khichdi or a savoury batter depending on how it is soaked, seasoned and cooked.
Keep the base simple
Cook with turmeric and water, then finish with a tempering of cumin, garlic or hing. The same base can be made brighter with tomato and coriander or gentler with rice and vegetables.
Three practical meal paths
- Weeknight moong dal with rice.
