Sambar Powder

Ingredients:

1  tbs   urad dhal
2  tsp   coriander seeds
1  tsp   cumin seeds
10        methi (fenugreek) seeds
1  tsp   mustard seeds
3          dried red chilies, broken
10        curry leaves
8          peppercorns


Method:

1. Take all these and fry together until you get an aroma.  
Light brown fry is good, don't blacken the seeds.
2. Transfer from pan to cold plate.  Allow seeds to fully cool.
3. Grind by hand or in a coffee grinder.**
4. The entirety of this powder can be used to make sambar 
for about 15 people. 

**I have purchased a coffee grinder that I use only to grind spices.  

Do not use the same grinder to grind coffee.
