Palak dal fry very healthy and easy dish. Few days back i got lot of spinach from market and wanted to finish every thing with in 2 or 3days and i had no option what to cook except few dishes from spinach. Then i though lets make palak dal with little bit of twist and it was tasty but different from palak dal.
