Notes
Dry the dal completely otherwise it will burst in oil. I used 2 cups of besan flour to prepare sev for this recipe. Adjust the nuts and spices according to your preference. Store in airtight container and it stays good for 2-3 weeks. Add chaat masala or amchur powder to make it more flavorful.
