How I did it
  1. Select young chamaku leaves which are not itchy.
  2. Clean, wash and chop into small pieces.
  3. Pressure cook channa dal, moog dal, chamaku, tamarind pulp, turmeric powder, chopped onion , green chillies and required salt till 5 to 6 whistles.
  4. When pressure is released  remove the lid and mash dal slightly with wooden masher.
  5. Take a wok, add oil and let it heat.
  6. Add mustard seeds, let them pop. Then add cumin seeds and then chopped onion and pounded garlic.
  7. Let them fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
  8. Then add besan and wheat flour and fry for couple of minutes.
  9. Finally add cooked dal and sugar .
  10. Cook for 5 minutes.
  11. Check the consistency is like mudda kura.
  12. Switch off the stove and transfer into bowl.


It goes well with rice and dollop of ghee and good combination to roti etc.
