About Radish Sambar Recipe (Mullangi Sambar)
Now moving back to the recipe. Radish was one of the most hated vegetable of mine before marriage. But after marriage I started to pick few radishes when I was visiting market.
Radishes are not only cheap, it is packed with lots of minerals. Mainly it is good for people who are in diet, radishes helps in losing weight. So what I make with that, someday I make this Radish paratha, but most of the time it will this yummy sambar. This sambar is packed with full flavor, those radishes give this sambar a unique taste and aroma.

The radish sambhar looks yummy. I usually make it with thoor dal. I like it like that. You can also make poriyal with radish, add some soaked chana dal or moong dal. Usually fresh and tender radishes are good, but more mature ones have a strong smell.In that case add finely chopped ginger along with the onions.
