ONe thing is that the quantity generated by sprouting 1 cup (250ml) of the dal was quite a lot. Enough to serve at least 5 adults. So those wanting to try this may want to adjust the proportions according to their requirements. Also, curd should be a definite addition Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12312683263415829438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-47127113951908118692008-12-20T00:54:00.000-06:002008-12-20T00:54:00.000-06:00Hi!Have been visiting your blog now for a while, a...Hi!<BR/><BR/>Have been visiting your blog now for a while, and have mainly been drooling at the pics.
