About Moong chela

Moong Chela, a wholesome dish rooted in Indian cuisine, is a savory pancake made from protein-rich moong dal (split green gram). Known for its simplicity and nutritional value, the batter is typically blended with fresh herbs and spices such as ginger, chili, and coriander, then lightly cooked on a skillet. Packed with plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins, Moong Chela supports digestion and sustains energy levels, making it ideal for a balanced diet. It’s often paired with curd or chutney, enhancing its flavor while maintaining its health profile. Low in fat and gluten-free, it’s suitable for various dietary preferences. However, frying with excessive oil or consuming high-calorie sides could reduce its health benefits. Perfect for breakfast, a light meal, or a snack, Moong Chela is a deliciously guilt-free way to enjoy traditional flavors while nourishing your body.
