MICROWAVE ROASTED MOONG DAL | INDIAN MICROWAVE RECIPES

 Haldirams style roasted moong dal 

How many of you are a big fan of Haldiram style roasted moong dal? We all love this very much but since it is deep fried i buy it very rarely. Recently i came tasted this in a friend's house and it tasted pretty nice. She told she didn't fry and instead did in a microwave. I tried this at home the next week and it turned out quite well. Of course i agree deep fried one will be so awesome but this one was equally good. Try this guilt free snack for your cup of tea this evening.
