For tasty Masoor Dal Kebab, Strain the soaked dal and wash it again to remove any excess starch. Strain it into a blender and add cumin, chopped green chillies, garlic, onion, ginger, red chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric, chaat masala, kasuri methi, fresh coriander, salt, and grated carrot. Grind it to a grainy mixture, scraping the sides in between to ensure a homogenous mixture.

For the Chilli Garlic Dip, Heat some oil in a pan and temper dry red chillies in it. Cook them on low heat to ensure they dry properly. Once you remove the chillies, add chopped garlic to the same pan and fry until it turns golden. In a bowl, take hung curd and add the fried garlic.

Crush the dried chillies before adding them to the dip, as it enhances its rich flavor. Add fresh coriander, salt, black salt, and crushed roasted cumin powder, and whisk it all together. Your chilli garlic dip is ready.
