Sambar sadam recipe | South Indian sambar rice

March 24, 2011 by Raks Anand 93 Comments / Jump to Recipe

sambar sadamSambar sadam recipe with full video, stepwise pictures. Tamil nadu style sambar sadam, an one pot meal with mixed vegetables, small onions.

When I posted keerai poriyal recipe, the background item ‘sambar sadam’ was catchy to some of you. Special effort from Sharmi to post this recipe for sambar sadam,as she always asked me to post it soon and if I ever not post this now,she would squeeze my neck🤪.I do nothing special,I almost make similar to arachuvitta sambar and mix it with cooked rice and dal,that’s it.

Few points to note in the recipe:

  • Though I have used fresh ground masala, you can use store bought sambar powder or the sambar powder we use on everyday cooking also can be used. Use 1 tbsp of sambar powder.
  • Cook dal and rice separately or together as per your convenience.
  • Asafoetida, ghee plays main role in flavour of this delicious sambar sadam.
  • Cook vegetables, small onions until soft.
  • After adding the gravy, take care not to mash the vegetables.

Sambar sadam recipe

Sambar sadam recipe with full video, stepwise pictures. Tamil nadu style sambar sadam, an one pot meal with mixed vegetables, small onions.
Course Main Course
Cuisine Indian
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 3
Cup measurements

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Rice
  • 1/3 cup Toor dal
  • 1 tsp Tamarind packed
  • Mixed veggies As needed
  • 1/2 cup Shallots/small onion peeled
  • 2 Green chillies
  • 1 Tomato
  • 1/2 tsp Sambar powder ready made
  • 1/4 tsp Turmeric
  • A generous pinch Asafoetida
  • 1 sprig Curry leaves
  • 2 tbsp Coriander leaves chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Jaggery
  • Salt as needed

TO ROAST AND GRIND

  • 1 tsp ghee
  • 4 Red chillies long variety
  • 1 tbsp Channa dal
  • 1.5 tsp Coriander seeds
  • 1/8 tsp Fenugreek seeds
  • 2 tbsp Coconut grated

TO TEMPER:

  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin seeds
  • 1/8 tsp Asafoetida

Instructions

  • Cook rice and dal, extract tamarind juice and keep aside. I cook rice and dal separately as I do not like rice get mashed too much(which will happen if we cook together rice and dal). So If you want you can cook both together too.
  • Heat kadai and roast to golden brown,the ingredients under ‘To roast and grind table’ with a tsp of ghee/oil except coconut. Roast coconut separately.
  • Cool down and grind to coarse powder or paste with little water and keep a side.
  • Heat kadai and temper with the items given under ‘to temper’ table. Add curry leaves followed by onion,slit green chillies and fry till the onions start to turn golden.
    Add the tomatoes and fry till soft.Add the tamarind extract,bring to boil. Add the turmeric,sambar powder,asafoetida and the chopped veggies.
    When the vegetables get cooked,add jaggery,the ground sambar powder and bring to boil.
    Add the sambar powder gradually while stirring,as there are chances of forming lumps.Add this to the cooked rice.I used a pot shaped pressure cooker for making sambar rice. Add the mashed dal and mix well with out mashing the veggies. Add hot water if its too thick. I just mix under low flame for 2 minutes.Let the sambar rice be in a loose consistency. After cooled down, it tends to get thick,so let the consistency be according to that.Top with 2 tsp ghee and coriander leaves.

Video

Notes

  • I added 1/2 of a  drumstick,1 brinjal,1/2   carrot and 1/2 potato. You can add your choice of veggies.. I like potato the best…
  • While adding the veggies,add the veggie which takes longer time to cook first, followed by the other veggies depending on their cooking time.
  • I usually cut the veggies in to small pieces to ensure easy cooking(except drumstick and brinjal in this case)
  • I have used both the sambar powder and fresh sambar masala. you can use any of one too, adjust the quantity accordingly.
  • If you want to skip the roasting, grinding part, use 1 tbsp store bought sambar powder (or homemade everyday use sambar powder) Just make sure to add generous asafoetida for flavour. 
  • You can temper at the last step too.

Sambar sadam method:

  1. Cook rice and dal for 5 whistles (water for rice 1 & 1/2 cup- water for dal 1 cup).step-1-cook-dal
  2. I usually pressure cook tamarind with little water, kept inside along with dal as shown below.step-2-cooked-dal
  3. Extract tamarind juice and keep aside. Total tamarind juice 3/4 cup. So adjust water accordingly.
  4. I cook rice and dal separately as I do not like rice get mashed too much(which will happen if we cook together rice and dal). So If you want you can cook both together too.Cooked rice
  5. Heat kadai and roast the ingredients under ‘To roast and grind table’ with a tsp of ghee/oil except coconut, to golden brown. Add coconut lastly, roast until dry.Roasted
  6. Cool down and grind to coarse powder or add little water to make paste. Keep a side.
  7. Heat kadai with 1 tbsp oil and temper with 1/2 tsp each mustard, cumin seeds. Add curry leaves followed by onion, slit green chillies and fry till the onions start to turn golden.`fry shallots
  8. In goes tomatoes and fry till soft.Fry tomatoes
  9. Pour in the tamarind extract, bring to boil. Add turmeric, sambar powder (readymade), asafoetida and the chopped veggies. (You can cook vegetables first too)Boil
  10. When the vegetables get cooked, salt, jaggery, the ground sambar spice mix.
    add veggies
  11. Mix well and bring to boil. Add cooked dal, mashed well.Add sambar powder
  12. Add this to the cooked rice. I used a pot shaped pressure cooker for making sambar rice. Mix well without mashing the veggies. Add hot water (salt along to balance) if its too thick. I just mix under low flame for 3-4 minutes.Mix with rice,add dal
  13. Let the sambar rice be in a loose consistency. After cooled down, it tends to get thick, so let the consistency be according to that. Top with 2 tsp ghee and coriander leaves.Garnish

Notes:

  • I added 1/2 of a  drumstick,1 brinjal,1/2   carrot and 1/2 potato. You can add your choice of veggies.. I like potato the best…
  • While adding the veggies,add the veggie which takes longer time to cook first, followed by the other veggies depending on their cooking time.

    Hi, when did you added roasted coconut ? Did you grind it along with other spices ? Pictures looks tempting !

    I tried out this recipe.The roasted ingredients gave an extraordinary flavor..especially the grated coconut. To enhance the taste further, you can try adding 2 pieces of cloves while tempering. I am not sure if many will like my suggestion though!

    Tried the sambar rice today. Thought it would be difficult than the one pot I am used to, but it was easier than I imagined. Great hit at home. Thanks Raji.
