GRAMFLOUR SAMBAR/QUICK SAMBAR-கடலைமாவு சாம்பார்
Ingredients:
Are you tired of making chutneys for idli ,dosa ...then make sambar ,I'm not telling about normal sambar,that'll take 30 minutes.
For a change try this QUICK SAMBAR. It only takes one third of time we spent for normal
Sambar ,that is only 10 minutes you need.
Ingredients:
Tomato 1 medium
Large onion Same size as tomato
Mustard seeds. 1 tsp
Curry leaves. 10 leaves
Gram flour. 2 tsp headed
Sambar powder. 2 tsp flat
Mango powder. 4 pinch ( you can substitute this with 2 tsp tamarind paste )
Coriander leaves. 1/4 cup tightly packed
Oil. 1 tsp
Salt. To taste
Making:
1. Clean & Chop onion and tomato into small pieces , collect coriander leaves and discard the
stem portion,actually I add more coriander leaves because It enhances the taste of sambar.
2. Heat a pan ,pour oil, add mustard seeds to heated oil ,wait for mustard seeds to splutter
,then add onion and a bit of salt , sauté for some time (2 minutes ) in medium flame then add
tomato and sauté until onion and tomatoes are well cooked( change in color) .(it'll take only 5 minutes )
3. Now add sambar powder to it ,fry for a minute .
4. At the same time mix gramflour in a cup of water without lumps .
5. Add this flour mixer to the cooked onion tomato in the pan ,add another 2 -3 cups of water ,
mango powder and enough salt ,let it boil. In between ,stir from the bottom of the pan . Keep it
in low flame.
6. Within 3-5 minutes sambar'll become thick, If needed ,add more or less water for your desired
consistency .check for the taste .if you need more tangy taste ,give another pinch of mango
powder. Right tangy ness and salt give you The Right taste of sambar.
7. Finally add coriander leaves and switch off ,stove.
8. Enjoy this new taste of sambar with dosa ,idli ,pongal,poori,etc...
