To prepare the Huruli Usili / Kollu Sundal/ Horse Gram Sundal recipe, ensure that the horse gram is soaked overnight in enough water. The next day, pressure cook it again for about 5-6 whistles in 2 cups of water. Since the horse gram is very firm, it takes longer to soften.

Add in the chopped onions, green chillies and curry leaves. Saute in medium heat until the onions are softened and turn slightly golden.

Finally stir in the cooked horse gram and coconut. Check the salt and adjust according to taste. Stir fry for a couple of minutes and turn off the heat.

Transfer the Huruli Sundal to as serving bowl and serve hot.
