Method

Add ½ cup of water to tamarind and soak for about 10 minutes.

Wash the dal thoroughly with water 2-3 times and drain the water thoroughly.

Add the washed dal to the pressure cooker.

Now add chopped onions, tomatoes, green chillies to the dal.

Add the turmeric powder, asafoetida/perungayam, salt to the dal.

Add about 2 cups of water to the dal, let it come to boil.

When it comes to rolling boil, close the lid and pressure cook for 2 whistles.

Wait for the pressure to release all by itself and open the lid.

Mash the dal thoroughly with either masher or with ladle.

Add 1.5 to 2 cups of water to the dal, needed salt and mix really well. Add 1 ½tsp of Sambar Powder and mix thoroughly.

Extract the tamarind juice and add it to the cooked dal.

Let it boil for about 5 minutes. You can adjust the consistency of sambar at this stage by adding more water if needed. After it boils well, switch off the stove.

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan, splutter mustard seeds, cumin seeds, red chillies, curry leaves and wait until the curry leaves turn crispy and switch off the stove.

Add the tempering to sambar.


Mix the tempering really well, add 1-2 tbsp of chopped cilantro/coriander leaves to the sambar.
