Milaga Killi Sambar

     Water Samabar !!?? Yes, this is called as "Thanni(Water) Sambar" by me during my childhood days. This i came to know recently by our family friend. In their home, during any auspicious occassions like New Moon Day or Kirthigai, they use to do pooja by preparing Vada and Payasam. By default, this Sambar will be in place with side dish as 'Potato Fry', which is my evergreen combo. Whenever i visit their place, they use to give a Real Big Non Veg feast but this recipe will be prepared/served specially for me with Potato Fry. So lovely people is it ?? Recently i tried this to recollect my childhood memories. So, here comes.....


ALL YOU NEED:
Toor Dhall 1 cup
Small Onion 1 cup
Chopped Tomato 2 Nos.
Turmeric Powder Pinch
Salt To Taste
Hing Pinch

To Temper
Corainder Leaf 2 Twigs
Curry Leaf 1 Twig
Red Chilly 4/5 Nos.
Mustard 1 spoon
Garlic 5 Nos.
Oil 2 spoons


METHOD:
    Pressure cook toor dhall with Turmeric powder for 10 minutes in simmer. Mash it with churner and keep aside. Heat a spoon of oil, add mustard, once it splutters, add red chillies, mashed garlic, corainder leaf, curry leaf and small onion, saute it for a while. Now add chopped tomato. Once it sauted well, pour pressure cooked dhall, pinch of hing, a cup of water and adjust with salt. Give hard stir. Allow it to boil for 10 minutes. Put off the flame. Now, Water Sambar is ready. Serve hot with idlies or hot steamed rice.
