    Hey.... Today morning I received Sambar [containing lady finger] from my House owner!!! Being a north Indian I really didn't had any clue as I always seen normal sambar.... I thought she did it by mistake.... But, after seeing your post, I'm really wondering!!!

    Anyway, nice post, simply delicious!!!.... I guess there must be other kind of sambar also.... Now, I'm first going to eat all of your post.... ;-)

    Take Care
