VEGETABLE SAMBAR/Tiffin Sambar in tamil/sambar recipe in tamil/முருங்கைக்காய் சாம்பார்

Preparation

Soak dal in hot water for 20 minutes and pressure cook for 3 whistles.

Soak tamarind in hot water and extract 1 cup of tamarind juice and discard the pulp.

Vegetables – You can use any vegetables like beans, carrot, cauliflower, potato,brinjal, broad beans (avarakkai), but do not add too many vegetables, then you will end up having more vegetables and very less sambar. So use just 1 cup of mixed vegetables.

I used 1 Drumstick, 2 brinjal, 2 potato add to the sambar while adding dal or paruppu.

Heat a tbsp of oil, add Fenugreek seeds,mustard seeds,when it splutters,add Cumin seeds, red chillies, & curry leaves, finely chopped onions and saute for a few minutes.Then add Turmeric powder, sambar powder , vegitables,tamarind water and salt needed .Let it boil until the raw smell of the tamarind and the sambar powder goes. Approximately it will take around 10 minutes.
Meant time pressure cook dal, keeping in a small container. After the raw smell of the tamarind and the sambar powder goes,Then mash the dal well with a masher and add to the sambar along with needed water.( little less than 1/2).Simmer and bring everything to a boil, until the sambar thickens a little.Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with steamed rice,idly, dosa & pongal
