A very popular Tamilnadu food is Idly. You go to any part of the world or even outside of Tamilnadu, you will definitely start to long for this. While Idly is a staple and all-time favorite for every age group, its taste is definitely elevated with its best friend Sambar. You start two Idlis first, soak them in a cup of sambar and demand for the next set of Idly and then sambar, with the game going on. The sambar which we prepare for rice is different from the Idli sambar/ Tiffin Sambar. Tiffin sambar is a little runny and less spicy against its counterpart for rice.Every household has different flavors for this tiffin sambar. In my household, I use both moong dal and toor dal in equal ratio to prepare this sambar. In addition to this, I also add half a cup of finely chopped yellow pumpkin, that gives a sweet tint to this sambar. The fresh sambar powder with the right blend of vegetables and lentils is definitely a wonderful accompaniment for steamed Idlis, making you demand more of it. Enjoy this with your family and leave it your comments.
