Notes
Please check the blog post for making urad dal flour at home. If using store-bought flour, dry roast it for 30 seconds and cool before adding the yogurt.
Adjust the salt and green chilies as per your preference. I used one green chili and one red chili (not a dried one) for this recipe. Adjust the chili measure according to the variety and as per your taste preference.
Use plant-based yogurt for the vegan version and gluten-free asafoetida for the gluten-free version.
