I am simply amazed by the variety of recipes here and the wonderful way that everything is organized ,leaves me speechless
ReplyDeleteWell i came across Tidaali dal listed here,and it calls for rajma, whereas as far as my knowledge goes rajma isn't used in tidali daal.kindly correct me if i am wrong !
All said and done,u have a very interesting and helpful blog
Keep up the good work !
Hi Alka,
ReplyDeleteYou are right. It is usual to use green whole mung dal in place of rajma in traditional recipes.
But going by the spirit of the recipe, it is Tri Dali Dal or Three lentil curry. So, you can have a mix of any three lentils, though as you pointed out, chana dal, mung dal and urad dal are most commonly used.
Hi Alka,
ReplyDeleteThe recipe has now been changed to reflect the more traditional version. Thanks for pointing it out.
