Parupu Sadham is a comforting South Indian dish that combines cooked rice with a hearty lentil-based mixture, typically made from toor dal or yellow lentils. Seasoned with spices like turmeric, mustard seeds, curry leaves, and often garnished with ghee, it offers a warm, savory profile. Rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, lentils are a key part of this dish, promoting digestive health and sustained energy. Turmeric, a staple spice, contributes anti-inflammatory properties, while curry leaves are loaded with antioxidants. However, the addition of ghee or coconut oil can increase its fat content, so moderation may be advised for those monitoring cholesterol intake. Parupu Sadham is a nutritious, flavorful way to incorporate plant-based proteins into your diet, and it serves as a wholesome comfort food that showcases the essence of Tamil cuisine.
