Method
- It is highly recommended that this recipe be relished by diabetics only occasionally and in small quantities. This is just a mere ‘treat’ and does not qualify for a regular diabetic menu.
- Clean, wash and soak the moong dal in enough water for atleast 2 to 3 hours. Drain and discard the excess water.
- Combine the moong dal along with 2 cups of water in a deep pan and cook over a medium flame for 10 to 12 minutes or till the dal is cooked. Drain and keep aside to cool.
- Add the fenugreek leaves, green chillies, cucumber, lemon juice, salt and sugar and toss well.
- Serve immediately garnished with coconut and coriander.
