This is one of the dish which reminds me back home. Amma makes this very often, since it is my sister’s favorite one. I love it too, but she loves is so much. Amma makes paruppu/ dal also whenever she makes it. This is how you should eat this, take some hot white rice in a plate, add some paruppu over it, drizzle over some desi ghee over it and mix well to form paruppu sadam. Now take a small portion out of it and shape into balls using your fingers, dip that in this pachadi and eat it..OMG i can remember those days, it is really precious. Missing those days a lot.
