What is you favorite kind of sambar?
Topic started by Mani (@ spider-wj072.proxy.aol.com) on Wed Nov 15 16:26:30 .
Out of all the styles in South India? Which state (in your most humble opinion) do you think has the best? To me, Thamizh Naad saambaar is very delicious, I also like Karnataka style saambaar (MTR Saambaar podi ) ), which do you think is the best kind?

RAYAR SAAMBAR
very very few people have ever heard of RAYAR SAAMBAR.
I came to know of this variety from one Iyengar gentlrman from Mayavaram whom I met in a train.
He explained it to me in a nice fashion and I made it at home.
Believe it or not, It has become a hot favourit of all the people who have tasted it.
If you want to learn the recipe, mail me at hkrtrivedi@yahoo.com

How come lovers of Great THING CALLED SAMBAR have not come forward with interesting recipes?
I can't imagine Iyers keeping quiet about this sampoornam or SAMBAR?

Kerala sambar is also tasty, but Tamil sambar is the best!

I tend to agree with Mani because the Sambar I have taken In cichin and Trivendrum, was without perangayam or Hing.I also foung potetoes in Sambar only in kerala.
Sambar in Coimbatore which I call as Gounder sambar is distinctly different and is really among the best Ihave eaten in India.I had the same taste in MAHARAO RESTAURANT IN TOKYO where a Tamil cook from Salem was employed.
But Nothing can compare withRAYAR SAMBAR I learnt from a Mayavaram gentleman.
Any takers ? I can teachthem.
Ingeneral, among all the south Indian sambars, Tamilnadu sambars are the best.

Hemant,
Adhu serriya, I am not too much into the potatoes in the sambar, but there are different Kerala recipes and styles. I know people who love sambar so much, they make it and drink it like it was a soup or something!

Hello Mani,
You are right.Sambar in Pallakdu or Palghat is different.There the Palghat Iyers make good sambar.They use a lot of perankayam or Hing.
But still the Tamilnadu excels in sambar.
