Chef's Notes
Do not rush the drying phase on the towel. Even a microscopic drop of surface water will cause the hot oil to violently protest and splash you.
Pro Tip
Always fry in small batches using a wire mesh strainer so you can lift all the lentils out at the exact same split second.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping a soaked batch of wet dal straight into the oil without towel-drying it first will turn your kitchen into a miniature volcano of boiling oil and regret.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the moong dal go to the spa? It needed a 4-hour soak just to feel relaxed enough to face the fryer.
The Culinary Science
Soaking rehydrates the cell walls of the pulse, and subsequent deep frying flashes the remaining moisture into steam, creating that coveted airy crunch.
