SAMBAR SADAM RECIPE / SAMBAR RICE

 

When I posted keerai poriyal recipe, the

background item ‘sambar sadam’ was

catchy to some of you. Special effort from

Sharmi to post this recipe for sambar 

sadam,as she always asked me to post it

soon and if I ever not post this now,she

would squeeze my neck.I do nothing

special,I almost make similar to arachuvitta

sambar and mix it with cooked rice and

dal,that's it..

Coriander leaves,chopped 2 tblsp

Jaggery 1/2 tsp

To roast and grind to coarse powder 

Red chillies,long variety 4

Channa dal 1 tblsp

Coriander seeds 1 & 1/2 tsp

Fenugreek seeds 1/4 tsp

Coconut 2 tblsp

To temper:

Oil/ghee 1 tblsp

Mustard 3/4 tsp

Jeera 1 tsp

 Asafoetida 1/4 tsp

Method:

1. Cook rice and dal,extract tamarind juice and keep aside. I cook rice and dal separately as I do not like riceget mashed too much(which will happen if we cook together rice and dal). So If you want you can cook

both together too.

2. Heat kadai and roast to golden brown,the ingredients under ‘To

roast and grind table’ with a tsp of ghee/oil except coconut.

Roast coconut separately.

3. Cool down and grind to coarse powder and keep a side.

4. Heat kadai and temper with the items given under ‘to temper’

table. Add curry leaves followed by onion,slit green chillies and

fry till the onions start to turn golden.

5. Add the tomatoes and fry till soft.

6. Add the tamarind extract,bring to boil. Add the turmeric,sambar 

powder,asafoetida and the chopped veggies.

7. When the vegetables get cooked,add jaggery,the ground

sambar powder and bring to boil.

8. Add the sambar powder gradually while stirring,as there are chances of forming lumps.

9. Add this to the cooked rice.I used a pot shaped pressure cooker for making sambar rice. Add the mashed

dal and mix well with out mashing the veggies. Add hot water if its too thick. I just mix under low flame for 

2 minutes.

10. Let the sambar rice be in a loose consistency. After cooled

down, it tends to get thick,so let the consistency be according to

that.Top with 2 tsp ghee and coriander leaves.

Notes:

I added 1/2 of a drumstick,1 brinjal,1/2 carrot and 1/2 potato.

You can add your choice of veggies.. I like potato the best…

While adding the veggies,add the veggie which takes longer 

time to cook first,follwed by the other veggies depending on their 

cooking time.

I usually cut the veggies in to small pieces to ensure easycooking(except drumstick and brinjal in this case)

I have used both the sambar powder,you can use only one

too,adjust the quantity accordingly.

Serve hot with simply potato chips(best combo) or any other veggie

accompaniment.
