Aachi Idicha Sambar Powder is a ready ground spice blend for idicha sambar, the Tamil style sambar built on a freshly pounded masala. Coriander, red chilli, cumin and fenugreek form the base, with turmeric, asafoetida and salt, while pigeon peas, Bengal lentils and rice are ground into the powder itself for a fuller, nuttier gravy. It comes in a 100g carton from Aachi, packed in India with the label printed in English and four European languages. Find more blends in our Sambar Powder range.
How to use it
Following the pack, pressure cook 150g of toor dal and set it aside. Heat one and a half tablespoons of oil, splutter half a teaspoon of mustard seeds, then fry one diced onion or 12 to 15 peeled shallots with a green chilli and a sprig of curry leaves until golden. Add one and a half cups of chopped vegetables, a tomato and one tablespoon of the powder, mix well, then pour in two cups of water with salt and cook for a few minutes. Stir in the dal and three tablespoons of tamarind juice, simmer for 15 minutes and finish with coriander leaves. Serve with steamed rice, idli or dosa; the recipe serves 6 to 8.
