Thanks for the recipe. How does it taste? Bitter?

Not too bitter. The onions balance it out :)

Hello...Im from Malaysia ...nice ....may I ask. Can you eat the leaves raw ?

[@jsfoodlab3101]

It’s safe to eat them raw but they just taste bitter. You can make it into a powder and add it to soups

@@jsfoodlab3101 my little dogs love fresh Moringa, what does that tell you?

[@vivette2512]

What was the first thing you added to the pot?

[@jsfoodlab3101]

Yellow lentils

[@jdrollins6485]

How do you think it would taste, substituting the moong dal with something like corn or peas or maybe even carrots? I haven't heard of moong dal. Would Walmart carry it?

[@jsfoodlab3101]

Anything mild and sweet would balance out the strong flavour of moringa. Moong dal in English is Skinned green gram. I’m sure you’ll find it in Walmart 😀

Mung bean. Check the ethnic food aisle
