Sambar is one of staple dish in Tamil homes. Like Gujarati’s fond of dhokla ,Bengoli’s fond of fish,Punjabi’s fond of sarso ka saag, Mumbai people are fond of pao bhaji,and we Odia's fond of dahi bara and sweets. Tamil's are fond of Sambar. The food never complete without Sambar. They cook Varieties of Sambar with using of single - single vegetables like lady's finger Sambar, drumstick Sambar,raw mango Sambar, keerai Sambar,radish Sambar,mix veg sambar, young coconut Sambar, bitter gourd Sambar which I like mostly with plain rice. I usually prepare sambar twice a week with idli and each time I try to cook different flavour of Sambar. My family enjoyed these variations of Sambar.
