Andhra style Cucumber dal / Dosakaya pappu is a super easy, quick dal recipe that can be prepared directly in a pressure cooker. Last week I had shared Karnataka style Cucumber palya / Salad Cucumber curry for rice. Its a super easy recipe. Similarly this Andhra style Dosakaya pappu is a super quick and healthy recipe with the combination of dal. I referred so many websites for this recipe and watched Vahchef’s YouTube video after a long time.
Generally Andhra people use Yellow Cucumber for this recipe but I used Salad Cucumber as I had lots in my pantry. Even Vahchef used the Salad Cucumber in his video. So I was double happy and tried it confidently. Surprisingly it came out very well and most comforting with rice adding ghee. We all liked it.
