Kosamalli or Kosambri salad is a food item which never fails
to find a place in the wedding feasts. It is usually prepared on the auspicious
day of Rama Navami along with panagam and neer moor. I prepared this last week
for Rama Navami but didn’t find time to post this till date. With the thought “Better
late than never” I am posting the recipe of Kosambri today. Don’t have to wait
till next Rama Navami to make this :-P. You can make this salad in no time whenever
you feel like having a healthy salad..

Soak the moong dal for 30-45 min. Drain the water in a
colander and keep it aside.

Tempering it with mustard seeds, squeezing a dash of lime
and a lavish sprinkle of coriander leaves completes this Kosambri /Kosamalli
