Ingredients
- 1 cup Mung Bean moong dal, split, yellow
- 1 Chilli green
- 1 inch Ginger
- 1/4 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1.5 tsp Salt or as per taste
- 1/2 cup Carrot finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Bell Peppers finely chopped
- Cabbage finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Cheese grated
- 1 leaf Coriander dhania, finely chopped
- 1/4 tsp Pepper black
- 2 Garlic green
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder haldi
Instructions
Prepare the Moong Dal Batter
- Soak the yellow moong dal in water for 4-5 hours. Drain well and grind into a smooth paste with green chilies, ginger, salt, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, black pepper (if using), and coriander leaves. Add water gradually to achieve a pancake-like batter consistency.
Prepare the Vegetable Filling
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan. Add the chopped carrots, bell pepper, and cabbage. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened but still crunchy. Stir in turmeric powder, black pepper (if using), and salt. Cook for another minute. Remove from heat and stir in the grated cheese.
Assemble and Cook the Potlis
- Heat remaining oil in a separate pan. Pour 2 tbsp of the moong dal batter onto the hot pan and spread into a thin circle (like a small pancake). Drizzle with a little oil. Once lightly browned on one side, flip and cook the other side. Spoon a portion of the vegetable filling onto the cooked batter, fold over to create a pouch, and tie securely with a green garlic stalk.
- Repeat with the remaining batter and filling. Serve hot with your favorite chutney.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Yellow Moong Dal Potlis
- For extra flavor, toast the cumin seeds lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the batter.
- Adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference. Start with one and add more if needed.
- If the batter is too thick, add a little more water to achieve the desired consistency for easy spreading.
- Feel free to experiment with other finely chopped vegetables in the filling, such as peas, spinach, or potatoes.
