Starting the 3rd week of blogging Marathon #90 with everyday lunch/dinner recipes.Being a rice eater most of our weekday lunch or dinner would be a simple South Indian cooking.As kids's prefer to eat rice once in a day, I do a veggie poriyal and some sambar or kuzhambhu variety.
Preparation time 20 minutes
Cooking time 12-15 minutes

Method
- Soak the moong dhal in water for 10 minutes,meanwhile chop the veggies and keep it aside.Once the moong dhla is soaked for 10 minutes,drain the water,set it aside.
- Now keep a pan on the stove top with 1/2 cup of water.To this add the soaked moong dhal and cook it for a minute.Now add the fresh green peas and cook it for a minute.
- Add in the remaining veggies,salt,red chilly powder and green chilly.Mix it well and cook it covred in a medium flame for 5-6 minutes or until the veggies are cooked.
- Now add in the grated coconut and mix it well.Now in a separate pan add the oil and do the tempering and add it to the veggies.Mix it well and put off the flame.
- Serve it along with rice and kulambhu.
- Since I wanted the dhal to be slightly mushy,Soake it for 10 minutes.If you want it to be separated then no need to soak.
- Finely chopped shallots can also be added in the tempering.
