HESARU BELE/SPLIT GREEN GRAM/MOONG DAL CHAT – VIDEO
We have grown up eating namma Bengaluru, basavanagudi – DVG road famous/special hesarubele chat & banana benne gulkand, which translates to split green gram chat & banana butter gulkand. I have made this chat numerous times earlier at home, but this time without fail clicked the procedure pics.
Today I have used store bought Gopala’s moongdal/hesarubele to make this chat. A kind of healthy chat option as it contains lot of veggies, pomegranate,moongdal, peanuts etc. A enjoyable chat option, with lots of veggies and fruit in this chili weather during winter season I must say.
