Kadalai Sundal Recipe Serves 2 Ingredients: 1 cup chickpeas / kabooli channa, soaked overnight 2 tbsp grated coconut 2 tsp oil 1/4 tsp mustard seeds 1/2 tsp urad dal / ulutham paruppu / husked and split black gram 2-3 dry red chillies A few curry leaves Salt to taste Instructions:
- Pressure cook the chickpeas for 3-4 whistles (until its cooked but still holds its shape). 3 whistles is a safer bit although in Singapore I feel pressure cooking takes more time.
- Heat the oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. When they start to pop, add the urad dal, red chillies each broken into two and the curry leaves.
- Once the urad dal turns a golden brown, add the drained chickpeas, coconut and salt. Mix well on medium flame for 3-4 minutes.
- Serve warm as is or with rice and side dish. Check out Mochakkottai Sundal Recipe I had posted earlier.
