Garlicky ( Lahsuni ) Moong-Masoor Daal with Carrot Greens

Garlicky Moong-Masoor daal with Carrot Greens is a very healthy, loaded with vitamins, minerals and protein. It can be prepared in less time and very light on the tummy. This daal happened to be the most favourite daal of my brother since we had last week he kept asking for more, can't blame him as each mouthful tasted better than the last one and was delicious and amazing that it surprised us all. 

this delicious and tasty Moong - Masoor Daal was simmering with fresh and vibrant Carrot leaves! 

Yes, they are very edible,  me and my family are living proof, so next time instead of tossing away nutritious carrot greens in the bin, use them in your recipes and make those dishes healthy and flavourful. 

I thought I'd share with you my favourite way to eat Vegetable green tops, cooked with various kind of lentils and beans. I think it's just about the easiest and simple preparation you have to do. You can prepare any lentils with any vegetable greens and increase the taste and flavours of the dish and make the dish flavoursome. You can check out my family's firm favourite daal dishes with Vegetable green Mixed Daal with Turnip Greens  , Puy lentils with Swiss Chard daal , Mixed Daal with Spinach ,   , Adraki Masoor aur Palak Daal Sprouted Mung Beans with Amaranth Leaves and Chana Daal with Spinach  , so yummy, comfort and hot daal and you won't realize that you will mop down a couple of extra round and soft gujarati rotlis!
