How to Cook Moong Dal Chilika

Rinse well and soak for 30 minutes to reduce cooking time. Simmer with water and a pinch of turmeric for 20–25 minutes until soft. Finish with a tadka of ghee, cumin, garlic, and dried chilli for an authentic, aromatic dal. Also excellent in khichdi or blended into a smooth, nourishing soup.
