Important tips and suggestions
In this recipe, i have used vegetables like carrots, peas, potatoes and tomato. You can add vegetables of your choice.
But you can make it even simple and prepare it with just onions and tomatoes.
Use of moong dal will make it thicker so you may have to water to adjust the consistency.
