Today we had this tangy and tasty mamidikaya pappu with hot steamed rice, spicy coconut powder, cabbage curry and curd 😋😋.
Note
* we can add onions, also use garlic in tempering.
* We can also use moong dal instead of toor dal.
* Adjust water according to consistency you wish.
* Adjust chilli according to your taste.
Tips
** You can skip soaking if no time. Then cook dal in medium flames for 5 minutes and then cook in high flames for 3 whistles.
** Donot cook mango pieces too smooth, mango dal tastes good when we get mango pieces while eating.
** If you do not like Mango bites then cook Mango in cooker for 1 whistle after boiling dal.
** If your Mango is not tangy then we can add pinch of tamarind juice.
** You can skip red chilli and use only green chilli too to get yellow color dal.
** using Ghee for tempering gives good taste to dal. You can also use oil too.
