How to make the best Sambhar Soup


Buy sambhar vegetables from a store
Wash them all thoroughly 
The vegetables, I used were russet potatoes, carrots, cilantro, onion shallots, green chili and tomatos.
Russet potatoes cubed
Carrots cubed
Onions Shallots a few Julienne
Tomatos(3)
Chili (4)
Cilantro a bunch for garnishing
Sambhar powder ( Eastern or brahmins)
Toor dal 1 cup
Add Tamarind pulp(size of a small lemon like key lime) in the end to give Sambhar Soup a punch of sour taste.
For tempering 
Oil 1 tablespoon
Dry red chilli 4 
Mustard seeds 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves a few
Shallots a few Julienne
Asafoteda 1 teaspoon 
This is the best soup I have ever had in a cold winter day. The only other soup that beats sambhar soup is rasam soup.
