Use very small and sour raw mangoes for this sambhar.
if u find the mangoes are not very sour, u can add a tbsp. of tamrind extract.
if u like a little sweet, u can also add little jaggery at the end.

I always like innovative dals. Most of the dals are made in north indian style. Therefore, i wanted to make a typical south indian one. This goes very well with plain rice, green peas pulav and also with rotis if you have an additional sorth indian subzi.
