Hariyanvi mixed dal is a tasty accompaniment with any meal. One can serve it with hot phulkas or parathas. Serve it with hot steamed rice and you have a soul food.
I recently joined Shhhhh Cooking Secretly Challenge Group on Facebook led by Mayuri Patel. Every month a particular regional cuisine is selected as the theme. Participants are in pairs and they give two secret ingredients to their partner, thus, it seems an interesting challenge here. The theme for this month is the Hariyanvi cuisine and my partner is Jagruti of Jagruti’s Cooking Odyssey She has a huge variety of vegetarian dishes on her blog, do check it. She had given me mixed dal (tur, moong and masoor) and ghee. And here is my recipe, doesn’t that sound good?

Ending with a quote by Hippoctates,”Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”. Something worth pondering isn’t it?

Simply delicious…I love mix dal’s a lot. Addition of Dahi is interesting, will try it out.
The daal looks just perfect! I’d love to have a bowl of this with rotis or rice. 🙂
Jayashree the dal looks so creamy and delicious. I prefer having mixed dals. Adding yogurt to the dal is interesting.
the intense earthiness of the dal is amazing. Love the work you are doing here
This Hariyanvi dal looks so tempting. Loved that you used tomato and curd both. I love dal with slightly tangy taste. Awesome share.
Such a comfort and nutritious dal.. Love to have with plain hot rice !

The Haryanvi mixed dal sounds flavorful..perfect with steaming rice and chapati..I make similar dal but never added curd to it..next time will try out your version

This Haryanvi Mixed Dal sounds easy to make and looks like it would be delicious. I haven’t thought of adding curd to dal earlier, and this is one recipe I will try out to know what difference that makes to the consistency and flavour!
