Dal fry

Dal fry is popular restaurant favorite. Ghee is used for tampering which give nice richness to this dal dish. More ghee you use, more flavorful it becomes. I used masoor dal and moong dal combination (same as author). It is very quick and easy to make. It is best accompaniment for roti or paratha or plain rice or jeera rice (my favorite). So get in your kitchen and make this dal fry. Enjoy yourself or with family.
