HAi Viki, You have got good collection of recipes.Have we to fry the coriander seeds also?
Thank you Shri AnnaLakshmi. Now I corrected the mistake...thanks for pointing out. The seeds should be dry roasted to get flavor. (Nothing should be browned, otherwise sambar will not be bright in color). Pls see the updated version now:)
