If your tired of having the same daal/soup everyday then you are on the right place my friend.
Palang is spinach and Moong daal is split green gram,so it’s basically a daal/soup goes nice with steamed rice.
My family used to had the same story and about that spinach/palang the same no no as it to my kids it is a vegetable+ healthy,so mark it off the list from the lunch,dinner or any menu😂😂😂😂. But,then I came across this recipe which is worth a try believe me.
It’s tasty and healthy. Your kids love it and you will take a minimum time to make it.So it’s a win win situation.
