👩🍳 Chef's tip: Serve your sambhar hot with steamed rice or soft idlis, and a side of crispy papad for added crunch. A drizzle of ghee on top enhances the flavor, and you can also add a side of fresh coconut chutney for a complete meal! For Podi Idli, try our Gun Powder Magic Mix for an extra kick of flavor.
