About Sambhar
Sambhar is a traditional South Indian lentil-based stew made with toor dal (pigeon peas), tamarind, and a blend of aromatic spices, including turmeric, mustard seeds, and curry leaves. It features a medley of vegetables such as drumsticks, carrots, beans, and squash, making it a nutrient-rich dish. Widely paired with rice, dosa, or idli, Sambhar is both flavorful and wholesome. Rich in protein from the lentils and packed with vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants from the vegetables, it supports digestion and heart health. The use of spices like turmeric contributes anti-inflammatory benefits. However, Sambhar’s healthfulness can vary depending on preparation; excessive oil or salt may reduce its nutritional value. Naturally low in fat and simple to make, Sambhar is an excellent choice for a balanced meal that satisfies both taste and health-conscious eating.
