Comments	The article is very good.Confusion about Sambhar or Kootan is because of language. It is Kootan for any curry in Tamil and when Tamarid is used it is called Sambhar. When you use buttermilk it is kootan. You can call it Moorkottan. When more than one vegetable is used it is Avial. Both Tamarid or Buttermilk are not used,only one is used. Sambhar is Tamarid Kootan.

Comments	If buttermilk is used, tamarind is not necessary. Either is enough.All watery curry is not sambar which is treditional item in whole of south.

Comments	We call this as "Paladya" ( Gulbarga Kannada language). The only differance is we add chana powder instead of Chana Dal and use thick butter milk. ( water content should be less). otherwise every thing is nice.

Comments	Hey....it was too good. My hubby cooked it for me. They call it Aviyal in kerela (buttermilk, coconut, tamarind), thoor dal in buttermilk is called morkuzhambu in tamil nadu, whatever you name it....matters nothing. Sugar is sweet in all the languages.

Comments	Curry is a British mish mash of a word (from Tamil, meaning vegetable)- refers to the nine ten colonially derived curries that rule in the UK. Sambaar always, always has a base of tomato, toor daal and tamarind - its a very south indian (tamilian) thing. Anything further can be added to this combo and it would still be sambaar. Curry means everything and nothing.

Comments	It would be better to name it as buttermilk curry instead of samabar since sambar itself is aa kind of curry and not a synonym for the word curry.
