2) Then dry roast rava for 3-5 mins until nice aroma comes, then set it aside. Transfer to mixing bowl.
3) Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds .When it splutters add bengalgram dal , broken cashews , curry leaves,hing ,ginger,green chillies.Saute for a minute then add the veggies u want to add ( I added grated carrot )and chopped coriander leaves.
