Sambhar Dal

This dish is basically the same  in almost all types of sambhars ….the difference being the vegetables that are added in it.

Ingredients:

Tuvar dal – half a cup

Garlic – about two cloves

Curry leaves – a few

Shallots – two or three sliced

Tomato – a quarter, diced

Turmeric powder – half a tsp

Salt – half a tsp

 Oil – half a tsp.

Method:

Wash the dal well,a few times,add all the ingredients to it and pressure cook it for a few whistles.

Now the basic dal for sambhar is ready.

This dal is also consumed as such after seasoning it with cumin seeds ( jeera) and dry red chillies or chilli flakes along with steamed rice and ghee.

Bon Appetit!
