Other mango related recipes on the blog are mango lassi, mango smoothie, mango rice, aam panna, mango pachadi etc...

Every vegetable can be used in making dal and all kinds of pulses and lentils are used to make various dal varieties...

In India and mostly in India dals are always a must in the meal platter. The dal could either be in the form of sambar, rasam style or charu or Pappu recipes mixed with various vegetables.

Here, instead of using a vegetable I have used mango as mangoes are available in plenty in mango season and I would love to try out few recipes with raw mangoes...therefore, I decided to go ahead and make mango dal this mango season for my blog readers.

My recipes are tried and tested and I blog on recipes that are tasty, delicious no matter even if it is a slow cooking method... This dal recipe needs a tangy raw mango to be used in the dal and adding a cooked raw mango infuses a tangy taste to the dal and also blends totally with the dal.

      The dal is prepared by using toor dal/toovar and it is pressure cooked to get soft and then the tangy flavour of mangoes is infused into it...
