Can I skip shallots and garlic?

For the best flavorful masiyal use shallots and garlic. if you don’t like strong garlic flavor you can reduce the amount of garlic. You can use chopped regular onions instead of shallots.

Is this spicy keerai kadaiyal?

I made a kid-friendly version of dal. I have used green chili for flavor but have used them on whole. If you prefer spicy Pappu split chilies and increase chilli powder.
