When it comes to many southern Indian regions, sambar, a vegetable stew cooked with lentils and mixed vegetables, is the ideal comfort food. It is a traditional food, which is made with absolute perfection, tastes divine and is full of flavour. The sambar masala is used with sambar. It is ideal to have steamed idli, plain dosa, medu vada, or coconut chutney and just plain rice with sambar. The traditional sambar recipe makes a stew that is filling, flavorful and bursting with vegetables, herbs and spices. Not only is it incredibly healthy and filling, but it also tastes great and keeps you full for a very long time. The proper mix of spices is a major component of this recipe which gives sambar its flavour.
I couldn't agree more! Sambar is indeed a comfort food staple in many southern Indian regions. And you know what pairs perfectly with a hearty bowl of sambar? Sella basmati rice, of course! The fluffy, fragrant rice complements the rich, savory flavors of the sambar beautifully. It's a match made in heaven if you ask me. Plus, the nutty taste of sella basmati rice adds another layer of depth to the dish. So, serve yourself a generous helping of sambar over a bed of sella basmati rice - your taste buds (and belly) will thank you!
