Please! this is not at all “Karnataka Sambar Recipe”. I am from Karnataka. So, I know it very well. Its better to name it “SONALI`S SAMBAR RECIPE” – as it is a combination of recipes. I don`t think its worth a try. I think people have just been kind enough to say its good. Well! I can`t.
just spoiled my our time and effort.
I haven`t heard that we can add garam masala in sambar. Any way this is not kerala sambar. Don`t waste your time.
I think we should appreciate Sonali. She has mentioned it is Karnataka Style. So please don`t mix it / compare with Kerala Sambar. Thanks Sonali, it`s little different from Kerala Style (as some one said we don`t put Garam Masala) but I liked it. Thank You…
is this as good as “kerala sambhar” on this site?
I am wondering if my father-in-law will like this?
maybe mil too?
this was good receipe for north indian like me who like garam masala in all curry thank you for letting us taste sambar
