While reading the article I was inspired by the mention of Ambadi leaves and how we use it in Andhra cooking. Here is a favorite recipe

Ambadi or gongura dal

1 cup ambadi leaves, chopped
1/2 cup chana Dal
3 flakes garlic, finely chopped
1/2 tsp ginger, grated
2 green chilies, chopped

For Seasoning

1/2 tsp ghee or oil
1/2 tsp mustard, urad dal and cumin seeds
Few fenugreek seeds
1 dry red chilly
