Tiffin Sambar | For Idli / Dosa / Pongal / Upma
Tiffin sambar is a perfect side dish for all south Indian breakfast recipes like Idli, Dosa, Pongal, Vadai, Paniyaram, Uttappam, Upma. This is actually prepared in many ways but this procedure of preparing sambar for breakfast especially with Idli is my favorite from my mom's preparation. It will melt in mouth with Idli and ghee. The heavenly taste makes me to go back Home immediately and ask her prepare this for me. She is really an excellent cook and I am an ardent lover of her cooking. I want to dedicate this recipe for her.
