Moonglet

A Moonglet (or "Moong Dal Omelette") is a popular, protein-packed Indian street food. It is a vegetarian alternative to an egg omelette, made by blending soaked yellow moong dal into a thick batter. It is cooked on a pan with oil, resulting in a crispy exterior and a fluffy, vegetable-filled inside.
