Cocodal ball

August 30, 2018Mahnoor Syed

Coco dal balls are cooked yellow dal balls with different essential oils sweetened with agave, maple, or rice syrup.

Once I visited a friend of mine, and upon talking, I got to know that she didn’t know how to cook dal. So, the next moment I started teaching her how to make dal. I made a savory dish. Along with that, I also made coco dal Balls to impress that we can also use dal to make desserts. She was delighted and loved the sweet and soft tenderness of the coco dal Balls.

Mung Daal, also known as “Green Gram” in Sanskrit, is a type of lentil. Pulses (seeds and sprouts) are a popular everyday dietary item that contains a variety of nutrients and biological activity. Antioxidant, anti-diabetic, antimicrobial, anti-hyperlipidemic, antihypertensive effects, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancerous effects are only a few of the health benefits of cocodal balls.
