A traditional Kerala-style sambhar made with lentils, vegetables, and a unique blend of spices, offering a flavorful and aromatic dish.
Add initial ingredients for dal and tempering
Add 80g washed Toor Dal, 0.25 tsp Turmeric Powder, and 500ml Water to The Upliance Pressure Cooker for initial cooking. For the tempering, add 2.5 tbsp Coconut Oil, 0.75 tsp Mustard Seeds, 0.1 tsp Fenugreek Seeds, 2 Dried Red Chillies (stem removed), 0.25 tsp Asafoetida, and 12 washed Curry Leaves to The Upliance jar.
The device will now cook dal and sauté spices & vegetables
Pressure cook the dal on medium heat for 20 minutes (3 whistles) using the Upliance's external pressure cooker functionality. Transfer cooked dal to the jar. The Upliance will now sauté the tempering spices in the jar on medium heat for 1 minute with automatic stirring. Then add 50g Red Pumpkin (cubed), 50g Carrot (chopped), 30g Yam (cubed), 30g French Beans (chopped), 1 stem Drumstick (cut into 1-inch pieces), 80g Mixed Vegetable (cut), and 80ml Water to The Upliance jar.
