Dal mixture recipe is very very easy one compared to madras mixture recipe. You do not have to prepare many recipes like kara boondi, omapodi etc. We just need to fry whole masoor dal, peanuts, almonds etc. For sev you can make omapodi or use store bought sev too. If using store bought sev be cautious while adding salt to the mixture.
To make dal mixture recipe we need whole masoor dal. Peanuts, cashews, almonds and plain sev. You can also add raisins if needed. Black salr and red chili powder are the seasoning ingredients. You can add amchoor, chaatmasala powder to if needed. Only point to remember while makig this dal mixture is to soak, drain and dry the masoor dal very well before frying. If not soaked properly the dal will not crisp up while frying. If the dal is not dried well it will burst while frying.
