Hi Subbu,
Sorry if this is a silly question to the experienced, but you mentioned adding the two urdhal and channadhal to the dish above. Are they raw meaning no prior soaking or cooking required before adding to the pan?
Thanks,
HN
No need to prior soaking. They have to be dry to be able to fry. You will grind them finally.
Can we add tomatoes?
