Easy breakfast sambar, one of the easiest side dishes for Idli and dosa. This breakfast sambar is very healthy and protein-rich as it is made with dal and vegetables.
Compared to meals sambar, breakfast sambar is thin and less spicy. To make it spicy, you can add one or two green chillies.
For mixed vegetables, I used a combination of potato, carrot, tomato, green beans, and shallots. You can use more or fewer varieties of vegetables as you like.
