Moong Dal Fry is one of my favorite snack. In my college days, I always wish to buy the Halidram’s brand as it tastes very good. The salt and crispy taste makes me to addict for that. After a longtime I tried this recipe in my home. My kids like this snack very much. This recipe is very easy to prepare and beginner level recipe.
