Notes

1. We have fried moong dal in the hot oil through a sieve because moong dal is very small in size. If we directly add moong dal in the oil for frying, it could have been extremely difficult to recollect it after getting fried. But if you don't have a big sieve, you can add moong dal directly into the oil for frying.
2. We have added only salt in the name of spices. But if you like, you can add red chilli powder and chat masala too. Choice is yours.
