About Moong dal chilla

Moong Dal Chilla is a nutritious and flavorful pancake originating from Indian cuisine, often enjoyed as a breakfast or snack option. Made primarily with soaked and blended yellow moong dal (split mung beans), the batter is seasoned with spices like cumin, green chilies, ginger, and turmeric, and sometimes mixed with chopped vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, and coriander. This dish is gluten-free and rich in plant-based protein, making it a great choice for vegetarians and those seeking balanced energy. Moong dal is low in calories, high in fiber, and supports digestive health, while turmeric and ginger add anti-inflammatory benefits. Typically cooked with minimal oil, it’s a heart-healthy alternative to heavier fried snacks. However, the oil content can be adjusted to maintain an even healthier profile. Versatile and satisfying, Moong Dal Chilla effortlessly combines wholesome ingredients with vibrant flavors.
