Put chopped cabbage turnips, soaked green peas in a pressure cooker. Add salt, chilly powder, jaggary, little amount of water and cook them well. (2-3 whistles) Once the pressure goes off, add the chopped onion and cook them for about 4-5 mins until onion is cooked.

Add red chillies, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, 1/4 tsp mustard seeds, black gram seeds, yellow lentils, fenugreek seeds, white rice, cloves, cinnamon and 1-2 tsp oil in a pan. Once it starts giving nice aroma, add asafetida powder, 5-6 curry leaves, turmeric powder and fry them for about 1 min in  low flame.

Add grated coconut, fried sambar masala, tamarind in a mixer and grind it to smooth paste by adding sufficient amount of water. (If it is frozen coconut use hot water while grinding.) Add this ground masala to the vessel containing cooked cabbage turnips, add cooked yellow lentils, bring them to boil and stir well. (Add water, salt if required.)

Put 3/4 tsp mustard seeds and oil in a pan. Once it starts spluttering, add 5-6 curry leaves and add it to sambar. It goes well with Rice/Dosas/Chapathi.
