My hubby loves to have a cup of tea once he is back from office. If he comes home bit early, I would like to prepare some or the other snacks along with tea. We both enjoy having some snacks while watching the TV programs. My sister used to prepare this kind of snacks at the evening time. Thanks to my dear sister for this recipe :)
Don't get confused, its chana dal & not sweetcorn ;)

Preparation Time: 5 minutes

Soaking Time: 1 hour

Servings: 2

Ingredients:

Chana dal - 1 1/2 cup

2 green chillies - chopped

Chopped coriander leaves - 2 table spoon

Mustard seeds - 1/2 spoon

Pinch of asafoetida

Oil - 1 spoon

Lime squeeze - for taste

Salt to taste

Method:

Soak chana dal for at-least 1 hour.

Heat around 1 spoon of oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and let it splutter. 

Then, add chopped green chillies and saute for a minute. 

Add soaked chana dal and asafoetida. Add salt and 1/4th cup of water.

Cook it closed for 5 minutes and saute it 1 - 2 times occasionally.

Once the chana dal is 3/4th cooked and the water is evaporated, switch off the flame and add lime squeeze and chopped coriander leaves.

Serve it hot with a cup of tea!

 

Tips:

• Don't cook the chana dal till very soft. Otherwise, it will not be nice to eat.
