Hello Hari Chandana, This is the first time i am visiting your blog and i am impressed with some unique combo dishes you have in your archive. I was intrigued by your name, having seen your comments in a few food blogs that i was browsing and happy to know you are based in Hyderabad. My mom used to make this dal since this was the only way to make me eat Gobi as a kid. Haven't eaten this dish in so long and brings back fond memories.
