Carrot – chana dal curry

Carrot is one of the only vegetable i think indians might like  to eat raw.Otherwise indians as far as i know prefer cooking every vegetable with a touch  of indian spices. Here i am posting a simple recipe of carrot cooked with senagapappu/chana dal.  

Ingredients:

1. Chopped carrots – 3cups
2. Senagapappu/Chana dal – 1cup
3. Green chillies – 3
4. Mustard seeds – 1tsp
5. Curry leaves – few
6. Salt to taste
7. Oil – 2tsp

  

Method:

• Soak chana dal for about 30min in water.
• Heat oil in skillet and add mustard seeds,green chillies,curry leaves. After the mustard starts to splutter add chopped carrots and salt and cook till they are soft.
• To this add the soaked chana dal and cook for another 10min.
• Tastes good with rice or any indian bread.
