Chana Dal Sundal Recipe

Chana dal sundal recipe with stepwise pictures.Chana dal sundal or Kadalai paruppu sundal is one easy and quick sundal recipe to make for navaratri.
I havent been to kollus I remember only once seeing it in person in my friends place. Otherwise to me, kollus are always visualised only in movies 🙂

Chana Dal Sundal Recipe

Chana Dal Sundal Recipe – Ingredients

Preparation Time : 10 mins | Cooking Time : 15 mins | Serves : 2
Recipe Category: Sidedish | Recipe Cuisine: South Indian
Kadalai Paruppu Sundal

Channa Dal – 1 cup
Coconut – 3 tbsp
Ginger scrapped – 1 tsp (optional)
Salt – as required
Oil – 1.5 tsp

To temper:

Mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp
Urad dal – 1/4 tsp
Curry leaves – few
Red chillies – 2
Hing – a generous pinch

Method:

  1. Soak channa dal in water for an hour. Then pressure cook chana dal with 1.5 cups for 1-2 whistles or until it turns soft but not mushy. Keep aside.In a pan heat oil, add mustard seeds, urad dhal allow it to crackle. Add hing, curry leaves and red chillies fry for a minute.

  2. Then add the cooked chana dal, scrapped ginger and required salt. Mix well until its combined. Add coconut, give a quick stir and switch off.

Transfer to serving dish and serve hot!

My Notes:

  • Pressure cooking will be ok too but take care not to make channa dal mushy.
  • Adding ginger always helps to avoid gastric problems with most lentils esp with chana dal.
  • You can replace red chillies with green chillies also.
