  1. i like the addition of pepper in the dal preparation….will try it soon..

  2. The combo is best…infact even better with milagu kuzhambu! Usually I make it just with toor dhal …hv never tried with moong dhal combo and garlic is new too!

  4. Hi Chitra,
    I tried the paruppu thogayal it came out nice. Small request can you please give spoon measurements for the dhals along with the 1/8 cup etc. The spice level I felt 1 teaspoon of pepper was high especially for kids it would be nice if you can give a range of 1/2 to 1tsp. This will help people like me. Thank you.

    1. Its my pleasure to do as u are one of my best readers who try and write the feedback promptly 🙂 Please keep trying and leave ur valuable comments.. Its sure encouraging 🙂
