Today I cook “Dal Moong with Satpura”
from Sindhi Cuisine, this recipe is adapted from Vaishali’s blog Ribbon’s to
Pasta’s. Satpura is Indian flatbread or layered paratha, Sat means seven and
Pura means layered which cooked as parathas. Dal moong is combination of two types
of moong, one is yellow gram and second is green split grams which cooked
separately and assemble together in one bowl. Garnish with spices, onion and
chutney.
Wiki
says “Sindhi cuisine refers to the native cuisine of the Sindhi
people from Sindh, Pakistan. The daily food in most Sindhi households
consists of wheat-based flat-bread (phulka) and rice accompanied by two
dishes; one is gravy and second dry. Today, Sindhi food is eaten
in many countries including India, where a sizeable number of Sindhis migrated
following the Partition of British India.”
