ABOUT One Pot Sambar.. RECIPE

An easy one pot dish done in a matter of few minutes. This is a fabulous way to cook this versatile lentils and vegetable stew from South India. I personally prefer this method since it has all the benefits of retaining important vitamins and minerals without over cooking and destroying them in the process. I have used practically many veggies but the choice is always yours regarding this. This is also a time saver for all the busy women out there and tastes fabulous. Happy Cooking !!!!!!!!!!!!
