Tomato can be added to this preparation if you prefer the sweet sour taste of tomatoes.You can have it for breakfast, for a quick lunch and it proves to be a satiating evening snack as well. The combination of rice, pulses, and sambhar makes it an endearing dish in a typical South Indian household.Also, it can be quickly made without extra efforts and is loved equally by both adults and kids.
