Masoppu means Mashed/Maseda soppu, this sambhar is made of combination many greens like Amaranth/Danttu, Menthya, hulli soppu, Basale soppu/Malabar Spinach, Spinach,Dill/Sabasige soppu.
This is an incredible match with Ragi mudde. Goes well with rice too, if its made thick like curry can be had with chapathi.
