WV12 ~ Sambar Soopa
Chamanthi
Morning:
A cup of ragi ganji without sweetener
A cup of cucumber slices with some lemon juice and pepper
Noon:
A big bowl of veggie-rich sambar soopa
Quarter cup of bendi curry with yogurt (Dahi bendi)
1 boiled egg, yellow removed
Evening:
A glass of ginger buttermilk
Night:
1 moong dal + chana dal dosa (Adai) with a cup of sambar soopa
(I couldn’t eat much. I was tired by night and food lost the appeal.)
Workout:
Made murukulu and atrasalu (adhirasam) for the Vara Laxmi Pooja on Friday.
In retrospect:
Good day with lots of tempting food. Because I made them standing in front of stove for hours inhaling the oil smoke, it was easy to resist the temptation.
Carrot, Mullangi, Yellow Squash, Okra~ Vegetables for Sambar SoopaSambar Soopa
A combination of four types of seasonal vegetables
Onion/shallots, tomatoes and cilantro
Toor dal and sambar powder
Asafetida Tadka
Very thick consistencyThat is my definition of Sambar Soopa. Four kinds of vegetables and the aromatic spices convert an ordinary sambar into a rich, healthy and comforting sambar soopa worthy of Workout Vratham.
