1). Heat oil in a pan. Add the mustard seed and let it splutter. Then add hing, curry leaves, urad dhal and channa dhal, saute till they turn golden brown. Add the onions, green chillies and saute until they turn translucent. Then add the tomatoes.

2). Saute the tomatoes till it becomes mushy. Then add 1 cup of water along with salt, mix well and let it boil.

 3). When it begins to boil, add turmeric powder, sambar powder and allow it to cook in low flame until the gotsu thickens and oil separates to the top. Switch off !

Gotsu is ready ! Serve with Idli / Dosa variety.
