WHY MOONG BEAN CURRY

Cherupayaru is a great source of protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy addition to any diet. It's also low in fat and calories, making it an excellent option for weight management. In addition, cherupayaru is gluten-free, making it a great alternative to other grains for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

SOAKING MOONG BEAN

You can soak the beans in water for at least 3-4 hours or overnight, then drain and rinse them before adding them to the curry. If you forgot to soak them, saute them well as it helps for better digestion and cooking

SHOULD I ADD THE GHEE TEMPERING?

For authentic Kerala-style cherupayaru curry I have used coconut oil. You can use any oil of your choice. Serve it with a dollop of ghee or use ghee for tempering

CAN I SKIP SHALLOTS?

For the best flavorful mung bean dal use shallots. You can use chopped regular onions instead of shallots.

no onion moong bean curry

if you prefer to skip onion, use asafoetida or ginger for digestion
