i am big fan of typical udupi sambar recipes: bende koddel, majjige huli, basale koddel, gulla koddel, padipe saasmi, pumkin sambar, drumstick sambar etc.
beans sambar can be prepared with freshly ground masala or if you are in hurry then you can use udupi sambar powder. however, i recommend you to prepare masala freshly to get the authentic udupi style sambar. if you do not like beans, you can replace with the vegetable of your choice.
also check out my other rasam recipes like pepper-garlic rasam, punarpusi saaru, udupi saaru, tomato-onion rasam, kat saaru, huruli saaru etc.
