Should I soak rice and dal?

Yes always soak rice and dal as it helps for perfect cooking. if you are soaking for a few hours, use hot water. For overnight soaking, you can use cold water.

You can skip the onion and make no onion sambhar. Today I have used big and small onions but you can use them according to your taste. Yellow pumpkin, white pumpkin, bottle gourd, sweet potato, etc. can be utilized for sambhar.

Can I skip the onion?

Yes, you can skip the onion, but I prefer using both onions as they give the rice a good flavor.

HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD I ADD WHILE COOKING rice DAL?
