How to Prepare Sambar

• Cook the Dal: Wash toor dal well. Then pressure cook it with a pinch of turmeric and enough water for about 3 whistles. Once the dal becomes soft, mash it well and keep it aside.
• Prepare the Vegetable Base: Add chopped vegetables, tamarind extract, turmeric, salt, and water to a cooking pot. Bring the mixture to a boil so that the vegetables begin to cook and absorb the flavours.
• Simmer Until the Vegetables Soften: Cook the mixture for about 8 to 10 minutes. Continue simmering until the vegetables become soft and the raw smell of tamarind reduces.
• Add Dal and Hollas Sambar Powder: Add the cooked dal to the pot. Then add about 2 to 3 tablespoons of Hollas Sambar Powder. Mix well and add more water if required. Bring the sambar to a good boil and adjust the consistency according to your preference.
• Temper and Garnish: Simmer the sambar for another 5 minutes. For tempering, heat a little oil or ghee and splutter mustard seeds. Then add curry leaves and hing. Pour the tempering over the sambar and garnish with fresh coriander leaves. Serve hot.

Tips for Better Taste: You can adjust the quantity of Hollas Sambar Powder depending on how strong or spicy you want the sambar. For a thicker texture, use slightly more cooked dal. For a lighter sambar, add extra water and balance the salt and tamarind accordingly.
