Everest makes this spice mix from a balanced selection of regional spices and lentils. The ingredients include Coriander, Chilli, Bengal Gram, Black Gram, Pigeon Pea, Cumin, Rice, Fenugreek, Iodized Salt, Curry Leaf, Tamarind, Turmeric, Cassia Bark (Taj), Compounded Asafoetida, and Citric Acid.
Ground lentils like Bengal gram and pigeon pea help give your sambhar a thick, hearty consistency. Tamarind and citric acid add a sharp, tangy kick to the dish.
How to Prepare Traditional South Indian Sambhar
To prepare a comforting bowl of sambhar, start by boiling 100 grams of pigeon peas (toor dal) in a pressure cooker until soft. In a separate pan, cook your choice of vegetables like drumsticks, pumpkin, eggplant, okra, and onions.
Once the vegetables are tender, add the cooked dal, two tablespoons of tamarind juice, red chilli powder, and salt. Stir in one heaped tablespoon of Everest Sambhar Masala Powder and let the mixture simmer.
For the final tempering (tadka), heat two teaspoons of oil in a small pan. Add one dried red chilli, a quarter teaspoon of fenugreek seeds, half a teaspoon of mustard seeds, a pinch of asafoetida, and a few fresh curry leaves. Pour this aromatic tempering over the simmering dal and vegetable mixture. Boil for another two minutes and serve hot with fresh idlis, dosas, or appams.
