Moong dal, like other lentils and pulses is a good source of protein and dietary fibre. One of the most significant benefits of moong dal is its role in facilitating weight loss. Moong dal makes for an excellent source of plant-based proteins. The high quantum of fibre present in the dal keeps you satiated for long.
Tips for making Pasi Paruppu Urundai:
- Keep flame in low while dry roasting moong dal. Moong dal will get burnt easily so we need to be more careful in roasting moong dal
- Grinding jaggery with moong flour, releases its moisture and makes it easier to shape the ladoos
- Always warm the ghee mixture before mixing with the ladoo mixture. Warm ghee helps to shape the ladoos
- Split the ladoo mixture into portions and add ghee in one portion at a time so that other portions are not getting dried out.
