Hi
Thanks for the Sambhar Powder recipe. Can you please let me know how many tablespoons of coriander needs to be added? Or what is the cup size?
Thanks & Regards
JSM
A cup is 125ml. My mother used to buy all ingredients measuring in kilograms and grams as she used to prepare large quantities to be distributed among sisters-in law, daughters-in- law and daughter. Now I prepare small quantities in the mixie once in a month. So all cup and spoon measures.
