How to make the Moong Dal Phulki recipe in just 15-minutes?
To make these delicious, sweet and tangy, easy recipe you just need a few ingredients. Also, what makes it super-quick to make is the use of Moong Dal Flour instead of Moong dal. Originally, you need to soak the moong dal for 5-6 hours. Then grind and beat and leave it to rest. The time taken is reduced by using Moong Dal Flour instead of Moong dal.
No need to soak, so you can right away, mix the flours and spices and condiments and mix well. Beat for 3-4 minutes to incorporate some air in the batter. And pour the batter into Appe Pan cavities to make these amazing phulkis.
Pro-Tips
- Mixing rice flour into the batter ensures the batter gets a bit lighter and the phulkis to be a bit crisp on the outside. When you later soak these into your creamy curd, you will get the best flavor. Even better than Dahi bhalla.
- Beating the batter after adding soda bicarb, helps air enter the batter. Making it light and fluffy. So when you cook them they will rise.
- Add Navratan Namkeen or All-in-one Namkeen by Haldiram or any other brand. It gives a nice crunchy texture and a bit of spice to balance the creamy, soft sweet flavors of the dahi phulki.
