About Ash gourd sambhar

Ash Gourd Sambhar is a nourishing South Indian dish that combines tender ash gourd with a flavorful, tangy lentil-based gravy. This traditional recipe includes toor dal (split pigeon peas), tamarind extract, and a blend of aromatic spices such as turmeric, mustard seeds, curry leaves, and sambhar powder. Packed with dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, ash gourd is known for its hydrating and detoxifying properties, while the lentils provide protein, making this dish both hearty and nutritious. Tamarind adds a unique tangy taste and is rich in antioxidants. Sambhar is typically lower in fat, especially when prepared with minimal oil, making it a wholesome option. However, sodium levels can increase depending on the amount of salt or preserved sambhar powder used. Often enjoyed with rice or idlis, this flavorful dish is a staple in South Indian cuisine and a great choice for a balanced meal.
