How to make the Raw Banana Sambar

• Wash and pressure cook Toor Dal till soft. I cooked for 3 whistles, and added the banana pieces and cooked for another whistle.
• Once the pressure falls, add tamarind extract, chopped green chilies, hing, jaggery, salt, Udupi Sambar Podi, and enough water to get the required consistency.
• Finally, add the coriander leaves and bring to boil.
• Meanwhile, in a smaller tempering pan, heat cooking oil, add the tempering ingredients and when done, pour on the simmering sambar.
• Remove and serve with Steamed Rice.
