Moong Dal Palak

Last Updated on

Moong Dal Palak is really very awesome and tasty recipe which is very
easy to prepare for our day to day menu. Mostly I did not prefer dal, but after
tempering of onion and tomato paste… its increase the taste of any dal. This dal
is mostly famous in North India side more compare to other areas.
Mostly we used spinach with moong dal or sometime used mix lentils
for this. After combo of lentils and spinach, it’s become great combination of
protein, iron and minerals, a complete package of balanced food. I posted this
