Sambhar Powder

Sambhar powder is the main ingredient in Sambhar.... The flavour adds to the taste.... Here is a recipe of home made sambhar powder which i use. I have used curry leaves also, which give a nice aroma to the sambhar.



Ingredients:

Corriander Seeds (Dhaniya) - 1 Cup
Red Chili - 1 Cup
Toor Dhal - 1/2 Cup
Urad Dhal - 1 tbsp
Channa Dhal - 1/4 cup
Pepper Corns - 1 tbsp
Fenugreek seeds - 1 tsp
Curry leaves - 2 sprigs
Asafoedita - 1 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1 tbsp

How to Make:
1. Dry roast all the ingredients in  simmer for about 8-10 mins except asafoedita and turmeric powder. Allow it to cool
2. Grind to fine powder along with asafoedita and turmeric powder.
P.S. I have used long red chili, hence i used 1 Cup. If you are using the round chili, it will be more spicy. So lessen the chili quantity accordingly. Also if you get whole turneric you can use that after drying under sun for 2-3 hours instead of turmeric powder.
