    Sundal

    This is a good snack item which is having full Protine. You can make 'sundal' by using any one of the following dals or you can mix 2 or 3 at a time. Because we need varities always. :drool So try these varities in 'sundal'. Like dals we can change the masala also. I am giving some dal names and some masalas here.

    You can use Soya, White Channa dal, Black channa dal, yellow channa dal, Green moong dal, yellow moong dal, udad dal, thur dal, Rajma, 'Mochai' ,Peas, 'karamani', Horse gram dal etc.,

    Whenever you are going to use these dals, please soak them atleast 12 hours in good water. Preassure cook them by adding salt. Then make seasoning and eat.

    Add masala and mix well. Serve them.

    For masala:
    1. Just grind dhaniya, red chilly , green chilly and salt. Make seasoning with mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Add this and fry for a while. Add the cooked dal and mix well.

    2. Just make seasoning with red chilly and mustard seeds. Add cooked dal and mix well. Your sundal is ready.

    3. if you want to add onion, chopp well and add them after seasoing. Fry well and then add cooked dal. Same for ginger or garlic too.

    4. For all the sundals you can add grated carrots, mango, cucumber, radish, chow chow etc., as per your wish and taste.

    5. Tomato also you can add. You can add 'Tamarind Paste' and give 'katta' taste to sundal. Or use 'Aam chuur' or Lemon juice.

    6. Add asefetida powder to give a good smell.

    7. Add curry leaves,coriander leaves and pudina leaves to change the taste.

    Note: generally we add fresh coconut for sundals. But here we can not use them. So make seasoning with coconut oil and elders will love to eat sundal, :thumbsupwithout fresh coconut. This coconut oil give the same taste.
