Ingredients:
3 bunches of dill
1/2 cup of soaked split moong dal

1 teaspoon of cumin seeds
3 tablespoons of olive oil
Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder

Method:
1. Chop dill into roughly 1/4 inches long pieces and keep aside
2. Heat oil in a skillet or cooking pan
3. Splutter cumin seeds
4. Add green chilies and garlic. Fry until garlic turns light brown
5. Drain soaked moong dal and add the dal to the skillet and fry for a minute

6. Mix turmeric powder and salt and add dill

7. Mix thoroughly, cover and cook for about 7-8 minutes or until dill and dal are cooked.
Don't forget to stir occasionally since dal tends to stick to the bottom. Sprinkle some water if you think the curry looks dry.

Serve hot with roti or rice.
