About Daal veggy sambar

Daal Veggy Sambar is a hearty and flavorful South Indian stew made with yellow lentils, assorted vegetables, tamarind, and a blend of aromatic spices. This dish combines nutrient-packed ingredients like protein-rich lentils, fiber-loaded vegetables such as carrots, drumsticks, and okra, and the tangy goodness of tamarind, which provides antioxidants and vitamins. The use of turmeric, curry leaves, and mustard seeds adds anti-inflammatory and digestive health benefits, while the absence of heavy creams or oils makes it a lighter option for maintaining a balanced diet. Traditionally served alongside rice or idli, Sambar is a wholesome dish that supports heart health and gut health due to its nutrient density and plant-based composition. However, its sodium content may be higher depending on added salt or commercial spice blends, so moderation is advised for those watching their salt intake. It’s a perfect choice for a satisfying meal with bold, authentic flavors.
