Notes | FAQ
- When sautéing onion with salt, in a non-stick pan, the onions will release moisture and hence will not burn. So no need of adding any extra oil. If you use a regular pan, you may need to add about ½ tsp of oil to saute the onions.
- Optionally, you can also add minced garlic, chopped tomatoes along with the onions for enhanced flavor.
- If you do not have sambar powder, you can substitute with ¼ tsp red chilli powder + ⅛ tsp coriander powder + ⅛ tsp jeera powder.
- You can add any veggies of your choice. I added carrots and green beans.
