@AnonymousJaggery just balance the tartness from the tomatoes. You can skip that too. But i think it taste good when there is a little sweetness

Hi in my mom's recepie she just adds mustard and fenugreek for seasoning and chillipowder and raw tomato puree just tastes yummy. A great hit for me also whenever I had tried and guests arrived with idlis.
