Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp yellow lentils, washed and soaked in boiling hot water for 15 to 20 minutes (yellow moong dal)
Directions:
- Peel and grate a carrot and keep aside.
- Chop cucumbers (skin on) into very small cubes and keep aside.
- In the meantime, bring a little over half cup of water to a boil and soak the washed yellow lentils in the same.
- Simmer on low flame for 10-15 minutes or until tender.
- Now, squeeze out the excess water from the grated carrot and the chopped cucumbers by squeezing them in the palm of your hand tightly.
- Place the veggies in a large salad serving bowl.
- Now, heat oil in a frying pan over high flame.
- When hot, add mustard seeds and allow to crackle.
- Add the chopped green chilli and the white urad dal.
- Mix once.
- Add the drained yellow lentils and saute for 2 minutes on low-medium flame.
- Remove from heat.
- Toss the lentil mixture into the veggie mix.
- Mix well.
- Cover.
- Refrigerate and serve chilled.
- I enjoy this on its own as well as when I toss this into'Saffron Rice' (recipe number 47592).
- This also tastes really nice when mixed into yogurt and eaten.
