Hi,

If they arent moong daal (green lentils), they are probably just another variety of lentils.

It may be easier to soak them over night before cooking to help soften them. The fastest way to cook "hard" lentils is by pressure cooker. If not, you will have to cook them low & slow on the stovetop. It may take up to 1 hr or longer depending on the quantity.
