Every year we used to make
pooranam with channa dal. This year i wanted to try the same with moong dal. My MIL told this pooranam comes out more flavourful than channa dal.So i gave a try. It was very nice & we all loved it..I think people in Andhra makes this kind of pooranam for Ganesh chaturthi. If u r really bored of making channa dal pooran , try this for a change. U’ll love it..
I wish all my friends a very happy vinayagar chaturthi
