    This sambar looks tempting ofcourse, but the recipe is so confusing…if dal is cooked with ings 2 why should we again add the smashed dal to ings 2!!!!! ?????

    Hai,
    instead of writing group 1 ing, group 2 ing, every time on the method part, u could ve listed them instead with little extra effort…cos this makes the user really scroll up and down the page and makes a little difficult to understand the recipe. hope u ll follow different fashion from next time onwards which ll really help us
    But it sounds great re… this is a sure try for me.. thanks…post more such recipes.. 🙂
