MAGHAMETHI (FENUGREEK FLAVOURED GREEN MOONG CURRY)

Here is an interesting and flavorful green moong curry from Homely Food, moong dal soaked in water along with fenugreek seeds, a purely 'Bhatia delicacy'. If you like no-oil food, without seasoning also, it tastes good.  Adding tempering makes it more delicious. If you try out this easy to make and simple dal curry, I am sure you would love it.                                                                                                       
INGREDIENTS:
1 Cup Green Whole Moong (soaked for few hours)

FOR SEASONING:
1 tsp Cumin Seeds

A Pinch of Asafoetida
1/2 tsp Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder
