Sambar

Price: 60 /-

Description: Sambar is a traditional South Indian lentil-based stew, rich in flavor and nutrition. It is a staple dish in South Indian households and is widely enjoyed across India and beyond. The dish is primarily made using toor dal (pigeon peas) as the base, which is pressure-cooked until soft and then combined with a variety of vegetables, such as drumsticks, carrots, radishes, eggplants, okra, and pumpkin. The distinctive taste of sambar comes from the sambar powder, a spice mix made of roasted and ground spices like coriander seeds, dried red chilies, fenugreek seeds, cumin, and curry leaves. Tamarind pulp adds a tangy flavor, while a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves, asafoetida, and dried chilies in oil or ghee enhances the aroma and taste.
