Notes

  • This sundal won't be bright green in color as we are roasting the green gram.
  • To get green color sundal, you need to soak the dal for 6 to 8 hours without roasting.
  • For sweet sundal: if the jaggery is pure, you can add grated jaggery directly to the cooked green gram. Mix till it melts.
  • You can add some lemon juice to spicy sundal if you like. But add it after switching off the flame.
