Kooking Blend(s): The Easy One and The Hot One / The Herby One as per taste
Other Ingredients: Good old Moong Dal and jeera
Used As: Masala
Directions for Kooks: You know how the magic trick to Indian cooking is said to be in the tadka? Once your usual moong dal has cooked, add a dollop of the Kooking Blend along with some jeera as tadka for easier tempering. Stir until combined. Serve hot. Ponder over the new taste.
Kooking Time: Easy Peasy
Why Kook?
For ease of flavouring and a herby twist. Just when you thought you have done all that can be done to a regular legume.
