About Mug varan
Mug Varan is a simple, nutritious lentil soup that originates from Maharashtrian cuisine in India. Made primarily with yellow mung dal (split yellow lentils), it is lightly spiced with turmeric and often flavored with cumin, curry leaves, and ghee, creating a mild yet aromatic dish. This comforting dish is typically served with steamed rice and is known for its high protein and fiber content, making it a great option for vegetarians. The mung dal provides essential nutrients like folate, magnesium, and antioxidants, supporting digestion and overall wellness. While the dish is naturally low in fat, its use of ghee can increase the calorie and fat content, depending on the serving size. Mug Varan’s simple preparation and wholesome ingredients make it a staple for a balanced meal, particularly for those seeking easy-to-digest and nourishing foods.
