Chana dal masala - chana dal fry.
It is one of the dal delicacies I am enjoying from my childhood.My father used to cook when my mom was ill or not in a mood to cook.I always remember those days when my dad used to cook it in night time and we three (myself , my younger sister and my father) were enjoying it with plain rice and papad.My dad too is a great cook , not like my mom but still he manages to cook so many of my favorite items like gobi fry , aloo fry and almost all the fried dishes.I inherited this recipe from my father and every time i think of eating chana dal fry , i used to cook this way.Cooking Time:30 minutes
