BACHELOR SAMBHAR l SAMBHAR

Sambhar is a main dish for serving along with Rice, Idli, Dosa, Upma, Kozhukkattai, Vadai etc.  South Indian household is incomplete with Sambhar.  Most of the days, they make it.  The Vegetables are cooked in tamarind water and the masalas are added with cooked Tuvar Dal or Moongdal.  

We can make Sambhar with the Sambhar powder or we can roast the masala and grind along with coconut and add to the sambhar which is called as Araithuvitta Sambhar (Araithu means grinding).

This Sambhar now I am talking about is for the bachelors to prepare the same very easily as everything is included in the Bachelor Sambhar Masala.  You will get the link when you click on it.  Video  of Bachelor Sambhar Masala.
