Bored of The Traditional Dal Makhani? Try Out Chef Saransh Goila’s Green Dal Makhani Instead

A lot of the times we crave a certain dish at some odd hour of the day but we are forced to let our cravings slide because we don’t have the exact specific ingredients at home to make it. Now, take dal makhani for instance. There’s hardly a soul who doesn’t love a piping hot bowl of creamy dal makhani with a side of naan. But what happens when you don’t have the requisite black urad dal at home? Does that mean you can’t make the dal makhani at all? Wrong. Founder of Goila Butter Chicken, celebrity Chef Saransh Goila has a solution that tastes just as good.
