About Aamti

Aamti is a flavorful, tangy lentil curry that originates from Maharashtrian cuisine in India. Traditionally made with split pigeon peas (toor dal), tamarind or lemon for acidity, and a mix of spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander, it delivers a balanced blend of sourness and warmth. Often served alongside rice or rotis, Aamti is a staple that combines taste with nutrition. The high protein and fiber content of lentils make it beneficial for digestion and muscle health, while the spices used provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Being low in fat, it can be a part of a heart-healthy diet. However, sodium or oil content may vary based on preparation methods, so moderation is key. With its simple ingredients and nutrient-packed profile, Aamti is both a comforting and health-conscious dish loved by many.
