Ingredients Serving: 4

Chana dal- one cup
White channa dal- one cup
Yellow moong dal- one cup
Salt per taste
Chaat masala 1/4 tsp
Can use red chilli powder, amchur powder. Optional
Baking soda or meetha soda pinch for each dal.
Water to soak
Oil for frying

Instructions

Soak each dal with a pinch of baking soda for 8 hrs.
Then drain water completely then put it on towel or cloth to absorb excess water separately.
Heat oil at high flame. As dals are soaked so as you put it in oil it will lower temperature of oil ,so keep it at high flame.
Except for white channa dal each other dal will take 3-4 min to get crisp. Check by taking a piece it will be crisp. Take out on tissue paper. When cool add spices
I added salt to yellow moong dal and channa dal.
For white channa it took me 8-10 min
Cool it and add chaat masala, salt, red chilli powder. Enjoy.
