How to make Green gram sweet sundal with step by step images

Wash and soak green gram dal in enough water overnight or for 8 hours.
After 8 hours of soaking transfer the soaked green gram dal to cooker add 1 cup water. Pressure cook dal for only 1 whistle. One (1) whistle is more than enough as it is soaked for 8 hours, too many whistles will make the green gram mushy. When the pressure has subsided completely open the cooker. Keep this aside.
Now in another pan add jaggery and ¼ cup water. When the mixture starts to boil add cardamom and grated coconut. Mix well.
Now add cooked green gram dal to the jaggery mixture. Mix well. When the mixture looks dry put off the flame. Relish it.
