Serves-4
Ingredients:
1 cup toor dal
500 gms radish
2 onions
2 sps tamarind paste
2 sps MTR sambar powder
3 green chillies & 2 red chillies
1 sp urad dal

4 pods of garlic; 8 curry leaves

4-5 pinches salt
1/2 sp chilly powder
coriander to garnish

Method:
- Soak toor dal for 10mins in water and then cook it under pressure for 3 whistles.
- Allow it to cool and then blend the cooked dal into fine paste adding salt to it.
- Meanwhile in a deep sauce pan,heat 2 glasses of filter water mixing tamarind paste in it.
- Chop radish into thin circles,I would like to chop the bunch leaves as well.This gives a different taste to it.
- Now cut onions into medium pieces (not fine).Add radish,radish leaves(if you like)and onion to the boiling tamarind water.Add sambar powder now.Close the lid and allow them to cook for 5-7mins.
- Add blended dal to this pan after the radish pieces are soft.
- Put turmeric,chilly powder,slit green chillies,chopped garlic in it and close the lid and allow it to boil for 5mins on low flame.
- Prepare seasoning in a different pan by heating oil,mustards seeds spluttering then add urad dal,red chillies,hing and curry leaves.
- Add seasoning to prepared sambar.Garnish with coriander.
- Tasty and soupy dish.You will surely like it when had with rice.My family enjoys papad with sambar.This serves as a dip even for dosa and idly.
