The best combination with Idly is one an only Sambar. Most of the time I depend using readymade sambar powder. I wanted to try homemade fresh sambar powder so after a google search, I came across one interesting mouthwatering Udupi sambar which I wanted to try as early as possible. The day I grabbed the recipe, that night, it was there for my dinner :) It comes from the place called Udupi. The ingredient I used for the first time is the coconut and pepper that gives a slight thickness and slight peppery touch to the gravy. Its smells simply divine the time you start roasting all the spices :) Do try this traditional sambar straight away from Udupi without Onion and Garlic :)

Hi, I loves cooking very much and I am a writer focused on career and physical development to spread more issues and tips to develop and works through Professional resume writing service. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. All your recipes are very good. One key ingredient in the udupi sambar is 1 tbsp saunf to be ground with the sambar masala. I had a hotelier friend who had told me this.
