Fresh Thoor dal is available all through winter in Gujarat.
When I first saw it I was surprised and became very curious about the types of dishes cooked with it.
I have started making most of them in my kitchen on regular bases.
Its used to make koftas, kichidi and kachoris.
Its good for health and tastes almost like fresh peas. This kichidi is made in gujarati kitchen atleast once a week in season.
