Moong Dal with Spinach Recipe by Manjula

[alexsandra9000]

Thank you for your video! I just became interested in cooking Indian food, and all of the ingredients and methods are so foreign to me I was getting overwhelmed. Your simple step-by-step video gives me the confidence to start learning more!

One comment - I do not have a pressure cooker, so in future recipies, please mention an alternative method for the pressure cooker step. Thanks!

[chakko72]

Manjula Aunty, you have increased my cooling skills so much my european friends think i should go to master chef programme!! But you are my master Chef!! Thanks a lot for your you tube video!! I LOVE YOUR COOKING

[indiadj]

there r two different cooking time for dal & spinach. pls.try adding chopped spinach as soon as u open the cooker& close for 5 min. It'll be more nutritional.

[TubeGuest5178]

I would love to thank the Indians for sharing their meal preparation with us PLAIN EATING AMERICAN FOLKS....I really enjoy learning something different. My kid loves eating different meals too.

[kxkhan]

Yummy. I always wanted to learn Daal with Spinach and never knew it was this easy! Thank you so much. YOu are the best in Veg. Recipes. Thank you Aunty ji.

[irfand4]

Thank you for this great recipe. What other daals can be used in this combo ? I personally want to use arhar or chana dal.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@irfand4

Chana dal will work.

[ashutube1]

hello aunty, its a very tempting looking recipe. i am going to try it today. One question, can i use normal yellow moong dal too for this recipe?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@ashutube1

You can use yellow moong dal.

[anil33stella]

Hi, it looks delicious ur food, May i have the list of the ingredients of this recipe? ,Thank you!!

[preetidesh]

wat is cayenne powder? whr do i get it?

[xbabyscarfacex]

Thank you for this video aunty, I enjoyed so much. Wonderful instructions and yummy looking dish.

[besserwiser]

I am making dal again and play the video as I cook... it's very comforting and relaxing to hear your voice in the background :-)

(I heard that onion/garlic is a good substitute for taste of hing, but that the counter-effects of asefetedia are not necessary for mung dal... this is because mung dal does not make problems with air in the stomach lika channas or other types of dals)

[princelogmein]

You remind me of my mother Aunty love you

[mlsdd]

Wow, you even make me emotional, really, I am a disaster in the kitchen but you make and explains things in such a simple way, thank you a lot for your great videos.

[besserwiser]

Thank you begum sahiba you saved my day... very good and instructive (nice and slow so even dummies can follow :-)

Now I have to figure out where to get asafetida (?) or alternative but I don't really know how iportant is this?

[yes4homeopathy]

I tried this one today .. very delicious ! thanks for the recepie. i did some experiment. i had 3 whistles with the pressure cooker. quciker and blends all the ingredients bettter..

[talktosanku]

Thank you very much manjula aunty...

[anisat009]

[lelandmama]

[akhlaqrajput]

[rekkhabusy]

great recipe, nice video, thanks.

[kirankalkunte]

Aunty. thanks for the recipe

[TheShilpivivek]

can we use canned spinach?

[humairayouth]

Thank you so much

[quirky524]

Adding onions to the Dal and garlic to the seasoning will add to the taste.

[dospeak]

i don't think mixing hing with onion is good...

[wolviela]

I don't have a pressure cooker. How long do I cook the dal for?

[Manjulaskitchen]

Soakal few hours before cooking that will help cut down the time.

[garlandboy123]

[joshiprasanna]

[tanz4life]

i like your every recipe i enjoy your food thanks

[389883]

really like all of ur recipes!!!!thks

[0157jo]

good recipe but doesnt boiling kill the spinanch?

[tekobari]

That is a very, very tempting recipe. Thank you for showing us how to make it. I buy my papadam, too. It's just much easier than trying to make it.

I'm lucky because we have a large Indian community in my city, so I can buy all of the ingredients locally. But other people can find everything they need from online stores. Therefore, these dishes are available to almost everyone.

[richa2315]

hi mrs. manjula, thanks for the recipe. Just wanted to know can we take some other dal than spit moong dal? As nobody at my home like moon dal. Thanks

[neelkmd]

very good recipe meri maa ki tarah i like all your cooking unty ji blessed are those who have ma like you

[universalctzn]

Hi Aunty,

I tried this recipe, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... I ate it for 2 days, unfortunately my uncle passed away in october so i couldnt have a party for diwali in my house, but I will next year, and will let you know how it goes.

Once again thanks for being so generous with your time and talent to teach,

Namaste.

[tekobari]

Your family is so lucky to have you at the center of the household. You are terrific!

[nellieeeeee]

[Manjulaskitchen]

[vaishnac]

[olivetreeeee]

[mripra]

i have pressure cooker with whistle. So can you please let me how many whistle this recipe required?

P.S. Cheok is also called tempering.

[Manjulaskitchen]

I think should be 2 whistle.

[sambalhijo]

Thank you for the tip about adding water to the spices while they are frying! I always have trouble keeping them from burning.

[rybpo7]

Thank you, Auntie! I've been trying to make good moong dahl for years and now I can make it delicious!

[artbyjjdd]

Thank you again for your excellent lessons, Mrs. Manjula. Dhal is my favorite and so is spinach. I can't wait to make this for dinner.

[boomerangaly]
