Carrot Kosambari salad


Carrot Kosambari, a colorful nutritious salad with grated carrots and moong dhal.  This is a traditional dish of karnataka and served as prasadam in temples. I love the addition of lime juice to it for it gives a distinctive sour juicy taste. you can also add grated cucumbers to it.

Cooking Essentials:

  
          Carrot                          1 grated
          Moong dal                  1 /2 cup  
          coconut                        1tbsp (optional)

  •   Pressure cook moong dal for 1 whistle. do not overcook it and make it mushy. The lentils  should be half cooked.
