About Kaddu Chana Dal
Kaddu Chana Dal Recipe
Kaddu Chana Dal is a sweet-savory Bihari pumpkin and chana dal dish that works beautifully with rice, roti and poori.
Kaddu Chana Dal is written for real home kitchens with Coriander Leaves, Red Chilli Powder, Table Salt, and Pumpkin (kaddu). Follow the steps in order, keep the timing practical and adjust seasoning at the end for a balanced result.
Why this recipe works
- Cook pumpkin until soft but still visible in pieces.
- Chana dal should stay slightly grainy, not fully mashed.
- A small jaggery pinch can balance pumpkin sweetness if needed.
