√ Cabbage Moong Dal Curry - Indonesian Food Rrecipe

Cabbage Moong Dal Curry

Cabbage Moong Dal Curry is another tasty way of using cabbage. I love the mix of  cabbage & moong dal when they are tempered with hing. Hing/Asafetida gives a very unique taste to the curry & makes it much more flavorful. I wouldn't like to skip adding hing or replacing it with something else, as it pairs perfectly with the curry. As you can see this is a easy to make dish & can be made in no time too. Enjoy this dish !!!
