Editors Review
Anything that has to do with Moong Dal always reminds me of home. I love Indian food and this is easily one of my favorite dishes. Moong dal with spinach is very flavorsome, tasty and healthy dal dish, and Manjula shows us how to make it. Serve with plain rice and roti and enjoy!Chef
