My most favourite vegetable sambar is here..I can’t talk on anything else now..This sambar filled with full of fresh vegetables is a nutrient and protein packed one which goes well with some hot piping rice and ghee. A ladle full of sambar poured on hot rice served with a papad makes your lunch an unforgettable experience any time..I bet even non-veg lovers would find this sambar a must to munch on their favourite chicken pieces.:)
Am too late to post this wonderful vegetable sambar on my blog and I noticed it very late:)This sambar brings back my childhood memories..As I don’t eat non-veg my mom used to make little amount of sambar and an omlette for me every sunday when she cooks chicken for my family:) Needless to say this is everyone’s favourite!!
I know most of you know this recipe,but I don’t want to miss this awesome and my favourite recipe on my space..Lets dig into the recipe..

Cook the dal in pressure cooker like this and mash it smoothly.Add in the dal and another 2 cups of water to it.Now lets’ boil the sambar:)
Keep on boiling for 20-25 minutes on low flame.Add in red chilli powder and boil for another 5-7 min.
Make tadka or tempering with the ingredients mentioned and pout on the hot sambar. Sprinkle coriander leaves.
Right now writing this post,I feel like having this hot piping sambar for my dinner but I made a decision not to eat rice for dinner 😛 You could also use this sambar as a tiffin sambar accompanied with fluffy idlies and soft dosai.
NOTES :
- If you dont’ like to add more tamarind increase the quantity of tomatoes.
- If you wish you can use some store bought sambar powder else skip it,But I find it tasty without even adding it since the blend of all vegetables give the whole taste.
- You can even soak the bread slices in this hot sambar and have it..Don’t laugh try it out:)
