Seeralan is the name of Lord Shiva’s devotee. There is a story of this devotee been cut and cooked. Later God gave him life back. This spicy curry is cooked with baked cereal cakes tastes like a non-vegetarian curry. Maybe it would have named after that. It is rich in protein and very healthy. Yellow mung dal is made from whole mung beans that have been hulled and split, resulting in a delicate lentil-like legume that is quick to cook and easy to digest. It is high in dietary fiber and an excellent source of protein, making this a healthy choice for vegans and vegetarians. The rich array of essential nutrients and antioxidants in moong dal offers a magnitude of health benefits including improves heart health, stimulate digestion, regulate blood pressure and promote weight loss. Add this humble little bean in your regular diet to reap its many health and nutritional benefits. If we are get bored of cutting vegetables or vegetables need to buy, that time it is one of my highly recommended recipes. This taste resembles nonveg mutton kulambu so everyone will like it. It goes nicely with steamed rice, idli, dosa and chapati too.
