Indian mung bean dal (moong dal)

We made this recipe as a side dish: https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/moong-dal-recipe/ We used a pressure cooker, and we followed the blogger’s tip about adding a bit (1/2 tsp) of red lentil to the 1/2 cup of moong dal to reduce stickiness.

We found the instructions confusing and imprecise (for ex, it is vague about the amount and use of the tomato), and this was a more involved recipe than expected. Because we accidentally saved half of the diced tomato (due to unclear instructions), we added it to the tadka preparation.

The end result was flavorful, but I’m not sure we will make this again. Or else we may look for a new recipe for this dish. (Feb. 2024)
