For the Sambar Powder (if making from scratch):
- 2 tablespoons coriander seeds
- 1 tablespoon cumin seeds
- 1 tablespoon chana dal (split chickpeas)
- 1/2 tablespoon fenugreek seeds
- 1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns
- 6-8 dried red chilies (adjust to your spice preference)
- 1 tablespoon grated coconut (optional)
- A pinch of asafoetida (hing)

Instructions:
Preparing the Sambar Powder (if making from scratch):
- Dry roast coriander seeds, cumin seeds, chana dal, fenugreek seeds, black peppercorns, and dried red chilies in a pan until they turn fragrant and slightly brown. Be careful not to burn them.
- Let the roasted spices cool down and then grind them to a fine powder along with grated coconut, turmeric powder, and asafoetida. Set the homemade sambar powder aside.
Making the Sambar:
- Wash and cook the toor dal with enough water and a pinch of turmeric powder until it becomes soft and mushy. You can do this on the stovetop or in a pressure cooker.
- Soak the tamarind in warm water and extract tamarind juice. Set the juice aside.
- In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Let them splutter.
- Add asafoetida, dried red chilies (if using), and fresh curry leaves.
- Add the finely chopped onions and green chilies. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.
- Add the chopped vegetables and sauté for a few minutes.
- Add the tamarind juice, chopped tomatoes, sambar powder, and salt. Mix well.
- Let the mixture simmer until the vegetables become tender. You can add some water to achieve the desired consistency.
- Once the vegetables are cooked, add the cooked toor dal. Mix well and let it simmer for a few more minutes.
- Check and adjust the seasoning. You can add more salt or sambar powder if needed.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
- Serve hot sambar with rice, dosa, idli, or as a side dish for a South Indian meal.
