    Notes

    1. A mix of Kashmiri and Spicy Red chillies (Pandi / Guntur) will give a mix of heat and colour
    2. Frozen coconut also will work for the spice paste
    3. When adding the cooked dal, dilute it with 1/4 cup water and add the lentil stock to the sambhar
    4. Quantity of whole Black peppers can be adjusted if you need more / less spice.
