Manga sambar is a traditional South Indian-style rice accompaniment prepared with raw mango, mixed vegetables, lentils, and specially prepared spice powder. The detailed recipe with tips and tricks makes it a great beginner-friendly recipe for South Indian cuisine meals.

WHAT IS SAMBAR?

Sambar is one of the most popular traditional South Indian dishes. A good amount of protein, and vegetables,  blended with flavorful sambhar powder - makes it not only healthy & nutritious but also tastes delicious.

WHAT TASTES BEST WITH SAMBHAR?

Sambhar plays a key role in South Indian cuisine. Sambhar goes well with tiffin varieties like idli, dosa, uthappam, etc. It also tastes great with rice,  without sambhar their no special thali/ festive/  wedding lunch / Indian lunch combo 

SHOULD I ALWAYS SOAK TOOR DAL?

No, it is optional but I feel soaking helps even cooking

HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD I ADD WHILE COOKING DAL?

It depends on the dal you use. I generally use a 1:3 dal: water ratio. The number of whistles also depends on the dal you use.

WHAT VARIETY OF DAL SHOULD I USE FOR SAMBHAR.

For rice accompaniment sambar I generally use toor dal. For the tiffin variety, I sometimes use moong dal. Restaurants/hotels use a combination of toor dal and masoor dal

HOW MUCH SAMBAR POWDER SHOULD I USE?

I prefer using homemade sambhar powder for my sambhar. The amount of sambhar powder might slightly vary based on your spice level. If you want to make it spicy add extra Sambar powder/ Chilli powder. If you are increasing sambhar powder, you might have to proportional increase tamarind accordingly.

SHOULD I ADD THE GHEE TEMPERING?

I generally use coconut oil for tempering and use little ghee while serving. You can use ghee according to your choice

WHAT SHOULD BE THE CONSISTENCY OF THE SAMBHAR?

Some like thin mangai sambar while others prefer it thick. Adjust water according to your preferred texture. 

USE additional VEGETABLES OF CHOICE

You can use potato, yellow pumpkin, or any other additional vegetables of your choice.

CAN I INCREASE TAMARIND AND REDUCE TOMATO?

Tomato sourness goes well with mango flavor so I prefer adding more tomato and less tamarind. If you are increasing tamarind adjust tomatoes accordingly.

CAN I USE ANY OTHER OIL?

Yes, you can use the oil of your choice but peanut oil gives the best flavor.

SHOULD I ADD THE GHEE TEMPERING?

I generally use peanut/coconut oil for tempering. In our home, we prefer adding ghee while eating. You can use ghee according to your choice
