Make sure that the channa dal does not get mushy while cooking or it would spoil the taste of sundal.
Tampering the mixture with coconut oil gives awesome taste. If you do not like the taste of coconut oil regular cooking oil can be used.
If you wish to add spices add dry red chillis or chopped green chillis.
