Happy Dussehra - 2016

Happy Dussehra to all the readers of my blog!!!! This is thali I made as prasadam for ammavaru today. It has Kesar Baaath (Kesar annam), Bellam annam (Jaggery Rice), Daddojanam (Yogurt Rice), Nimmakaya pulihora (Lemon Rice), Kobbari annam (Coconut Rice), Neyyi annam (Ghee Rice )

Pappu Thokku (Chana Dal, Lime)

Ingredients
Chana dal - 2 cups
Cumin seeds - 2 tea spoons
Green chillies - depends on how hot chillies are and how much spicy you want. I used 3 hot green long peppers
Lime juice - 1 table spoons (Adjust it according to your taste)

For tadka
Oil - 1 table spoon
mustard seeds - 1 tea spoon
urad dal - 1 tea spoon
red chillies - 2 -3 pinched small

Method of preparation
Soak chana dal for couple of hours. This gives the dal a little softier touch when grinded.
Grind it with green chillies, cumin, Do not make it too smooth paste. It has to be a little grainy.
You can add the lime juice and tadka at this point. Now top it with fresh coriander and serve with hot rice.
