Dry all the ingredients separately in a wide plate or on a newspaper in the hot sun for 6-7 hours.
If you didn’t get proper sun on rainy days, u can microwave the ingredients for a few minutes without changing their color.
Please give it to a mill (rice mill) and make it into a fine powder.
Once done, spread the Sambar powder on a wide plate in the shade (inside the house) for 10 minutes, then store it in a dry, clean container. This is to cool the sambar powder as the heat from the flour mill will change the color.
