To maintain the green colour and keep the grains distinct, avoid over-whisking the dal once it’s cooked. For an authentic flavour, finish the dish with a \"tadka\" of cumin and hing (asafoetida) in ghee, which perfectly cuts through the earthy taste of the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNutritional Profile\u003c\/b\u003e Because the skin is retained, this dal is \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"62\"\u003ehigher in Dietary Fiber\u003c\/b\u003e than the yellow version, aiding in digestion and heart health.
