Dal is always a comfort food, isn’t it? There are many varieties of dal recipes in Indian cuisine, be it the rich and creamy Dal Makhni to the very humble Yellow Dal. But do you know that there is a dal that can be made with a tangy and chilli twist? Oh yes !! It is the Raw Green Mango Dal. This is called “Mamidikaya Pappu” in Andhra cuisine. There are many ways of making this dal, but this is how my mom makes it.

Hing pinch
Turmeric Powder pinch
Red Chilli Powder 1 tsp
Salt to taste
