Pepper Cabbage Dal

Simple dals, my all time comforting food, i can live just with simply tempered dal with pickles for many days, just love them that much..This pepper cabbage dal was among my favourite dal coz this dal is really very easy and quick to prepare with a simple grounded masala prepared with grated coconuts, cumin seeds and pepper powder.This dish doesnt goes for chilly powder or sambar powder to make out..The spiciness of pepper suits prefect and goes awesome along with hot steaming rice  when served along with papads or potato roast..A prefect side dish for rotis too, quick dal prepared with a toor dal, moongdal and masoor dal, these three dals cooked along with shredded cabbage turned out this dal more tastier than the usual dals...Sending this dal to Yasmeen's Healthy Nut Challenge 5- Crucial Cruciferious, Suma's Delicious Dals From India & MLLA-22th Helping guest hosted by Ruchikacooks, event by Susan..
