You need one cup toor dal. Half a bag of spinach, chop them coarsely. Two small tomatoes, cut them in to 4 , Two big garlic pods cut in to 4,One small onion, cut them in to 4.Put all these together in a pressure cooker. Add a tea spoon of turmeric and salt and cook. I normally let 2 whistles.After it’s cooked, add ¾ table spoons chili powder, 1/2 coriander powder, 1/2 ts roasted and powdered cumin seeds, one or two pinches of uluva/fenugreek seeds.Also add a pinch or two of asafetida. Mix well. Or if you want you can use sambar powder but also add roasted cumin powder in it. Season it with mustard seeds, red chili and curry leaves.Very easy to make and very tasty too.This is what I am sending to Indira of Mahanandi for JFI- Greens

Hi Meera,
This is my first time here (via Mahanandi), and I look forward to making your lovely Keera Sambar this weekend.
One question though...don't you have to add some water to the pressure cooker? Won't everything stick otherwise?
Thanks from a newbie,
Krista
