Moong dal mangodi is a pakoda or wadi like snack made with a batter of soaked and spiced moong dal. The batter is piped out as small pieces, sun-dried and preserved in airtight containers. On cold winter days in dessert regions like rajasthan when fresh veggies might not be available, these tasty and nutrient-packed mangodis are deep-fried and added to dishes like dals, pulaos and even subzis like mangodi ki dal, palak mangodi, papad mangodi ki subzi and methi mangodi. Mangodis are not only handy but also super-tasty
