Panchmel Dal

Rating5.0DifficultyEasy

Dal is an essential part in "DAL-BAATI-CHURMA". It is prepared with different ways.You could choose just one Pulse or the mixture of different pulses.Traditionally, Just Urad dal is used in

 

"Dal, Baati, Charm". However, PANCHMEL DAL is equally famous and commonly prepared in the recipe.  In this Recipe I used all pulse(Green Mung Dal, Toor Dal, Begal Gram, Urad dal and Red Lentil) in equal quantity. Dal is cooked separately and then cooked dal is tempered with whole Garam Masala and chopped Tomato,Ginger and Green chili.
