Idli Sambar recipe - Sambar Without Dal - Quick Sambar Recipe:


A sambar without dal recipe which can be made in just 10 minutes.

It is really needed to know some quick recipes which can help you when you are tired, not having enough time to spend for cooking, unexpected guests, not having enough ingredients and so on. Yesterday I was in the same situation when I did not have time to make Idli sambar with dal. Also, I did not have coconut to make chutney. So, I decided to try this Quick Idli Sambar recipe with gram flour(kadalamavu in Tamil). I would say that this quick sambar cannot beat idli samabr recipe with dal or Udupi Sambar in taste. But the quick idli sambar beat both of them in terms of time. Yes, I made it really quick. Even though it did not taste so good, it tasted good. It is worth trying when you running out of time.
