Andhra Style Tomato Pappu is a authentic and famous recipe of Andhra Pradesh.  It is one of the basic lentil base dish from Andhra Cuisine. In this recipe I have taken both massor dal and toor dal for preparing this recipe. Tomato pappu is slightly similar to dal fry, pappu saaru etc. An Andhra meal is not complete without this healthy tomato pappu. So, the ingredients used in this recipe are ripe tomatoes, onions, garlics, green chilies, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, oil, curry leaves, salt to taste, tamarind, water as required, turmeric powder, ghee.

Best Combo:

Tomato Pappu + hot rice + Ghee + Pappad.

Tomato Pappu + Idli or Dosa.

Tomato Pappu + Ragi ball.
