Notes
1. Please be careful while frying the moong dal, as there may be chances of oil spill, if more moong dal is added.
2. You can also fry all the moong dal directly in the oil without strainer, and if doing so, you need to strain the oil once the dal gets golden color, because, if dal continues to be in the oil, then they becomes dark and over fried.
3. Spices can be adjusted according to your taste buds.
