LASOONI SAMBAR
Lasooni
sambar is made with lasoon and masala made out of kopra, onion and lasoon. It is not like the normal sambar but
resembles the Rasam. It goes well with
rice.
This recipe
is shared with me by one of my colleague Mrs. Ranjana Narkar and I liked it
very much with hot steaming rice. Hence
sharing with you all. When you are
having a very bad cough and cold, this dish is ideal for you to bring some
taste in the taste bud. She stated that
this dish is served to ladies after
delivery as it is healthier for them to have this at that stage.
Let us have
a look at the recipe.
For making masala:
2 cups grated kopra
1 medium size onion chopped
5-6 cloves of garlic
1 tsp oil
Heat oil and
sauté the onion till it is soft and brownish, keep aside.
In the same
kadai, add the kopra and sauté the same till golden brown.
Sauté the
garlic too at the last stage along with the kopra
Cool and
grind together all ingredients. Do not add water. If handled properly and refrigerated, lasts
for 10-15 days.
