Mix rice with yogurt and salt.
Heat oil for tempering.
When oil is hot, add curry leaves, mustard seeds and dry chili.
When the seeds splutter, add ginger, green chilies and fry for few seconds.
Add chana dal and roast the chana dal until it changes color and is slightly crisp.
Turn off the flame and pour it on rice.

- Serving - It is 1 serving but it is not a filling meal if this is the the only food served.
