Why Moong Dal Sambhar?

Sambar is one of the most popular traditional South Indian dishes. A good amount of protein, blended with flavorful tiffin sambhar powder, makes it not only healthy and nutritious but also delicious. The tiffin sambar variety is usually prepared with pasi paruppu. 

Why three dal for moong dal sambar?

Traditionally, just moong dal is used, but to add a little extra protein and also for the Sambar texture, I prefer using three dals. You can adjust the dal quantity according to your preference

Can I skip garlic?

Garlic gives amazing flavor to the tiffin sambhar, and also aids in digestion. Feel free to skip according to your taste.

Can I use vegetables?

you can add drumstick, potato, carrot, pumpkin, and brinjal for payatham paruppu sambar.

Will it be spicy?

No, pasi paruppu sambar is with a subtle taste. If you prefer spicy sambar, adjust the sambar powder accordingly. 

SHOULD I ADD THE GHEE TEMPERING?

I generally use sesame oil for cooking and drizzle ghee while serving. 

WILL I TASTE RAW ONION and garlic?

No, since we directly pressure cook dal with onion with oil, we won’t taste the raw smell.

Can I chop tomatoes?

Yes but still, tomatoes are the main source of sourness for this sambar. I mash the tomatoes for the best flavor. I skip the additional chopping time as mashing takes care of it.

WHAT TASTES BEST WITH pasi paruppu SAMBHAR?

Sambhar plays a key role in South Indian cuisine. Tiffin Sambhar goes well with tiffin varieties like idli, dosa, uthappam, and Pongal. It also tastes good with rice.
