Hi…in instant ceralac mix I have washed and dried the dal but the dal is stinging a bit. Did they get spoil or its usual? I couldnt dry it under sunlight. ..Pls help
Dr Hemapriya says
Hi Jimshe,
If you are using a good brand dal, then no need to wash, just dry roast them as such and powder it
Jyothi says

bhagya says
Hello Hema I have doubts… don’t have to wash nd dry the ingredients? and instead of water can we use hot milk?and can we mix almonds to this porridge? Please suggest…
Dr Hemapriya says
Hi,
You don’t have to wash and dry if your are using branded products, I don’t think so it will cook well with milk and you can add powdered almonds after the porridge is made with hot water
lakshmi says
