Ramadan Special Daal and Fruit Salad

This salad was born out of the true Ramadan tradition of giving. In Hyderabad, we make a simple boiled daal which is had for iftaar along with fruits and other light dishes. Often neighbors would send each other platefuls of dates, fruits and this daal which would all inevitably get mixed up. Infact some people eat the daal with with bananas or pomegranate. I thought why not mix it and jazz it all up as a fruit salad with a delicious twist! Since then it is a ramadan staple on our iftaar table and its superb healthy dish to have as you break the fast.
