When I had this dal from my colleague from Pune I kind of like the taste. When I asked him he gave the recipe which sounded like panchmel / Panchratna dal. But it tasted diff so I decided to check with his wife. I got a detailed recipe from her. it is the dry coconut really adds good flavor to the curry/dal.
