Sambar Masala is a quintessential spice mix used in South Indian cooking to create the perfect sambar—a hearty and aromatic lentil-based stew with vegetables. This blend combines the warmth of Red Chilli, the citrusy flavor of Dhaniya (Coriander Seeds), the earthiness of Cumin, and the bitterness of Fenugreek, along with other spices like Asafoetida, Mustard Seeds, and Turmeric. The addition of Channa Dal, Toor Dal, and Moong Dal not only thickens the sambar but also adds a rich, nutty flavor that makes the dish wholesome and satisfying. Whether you’re making a simple sambar with just a few vegetables or a more elaborate version, this Sambar Masala ensures an authentic and rich taste that will enhance your culinary experience.
