Idli Sambar, Masala Dosa, and Uttappam are popular South Indian breakfast combinations where fluffy, soft idli (a savoury steamed cake) is served with hot sambar (a vegetable lentil stew). It makes a delicious, healthy, comforting, and protein-packed meal. The spicy, soupy lentil curry, Sambar, is also known as tiffin sambar, as it is often served with other tiffin varieties like Dosa, Uttapam, Medu Wada, Poha, and Upma.
