The aromatic flavours of this traditional South Indian dish are truly irresistible. The speciality of this sambhar is that it is made with minimal oil and loads of vegetables which enhance its nutritive value. When served hot with Nutritious Stuffed Idlis, it makes a meal that is very hard to resist. Alternatively, relish this sambhar with steamed rice to make a wholesome meal.

      Your sambhar recipe calls for 2 brinjals, cubed. I am wondering how big the brinjals are since they come in many different varieties. Also do you use the whole drumstick,inner and outer parts? Thank you for your advice.
