Mullangi Sambar Recipe | Radish Sambar Recipe, very conventional sambar most of us make regularly. Along with radish we use onion to balance out of the pungent smell of radish. A very tasty sambar with rich flavor of radish, usually served with rice or idli/dosa/pongal.
Radish Sambar (Mullangi Sambar) is one of the most common sambar variety in Southern India, especially in TamilNadu. Radish has so much of medicinal properties. We should often include radish in our day to day diet. We generally add mixed vegetables to sambar. But in Radish sambar, we are just going to use only radish. Radish has a pungent smell. In order to suppress the smell, we can add onions to sambar. Also here, we are going to grind fresh sambar masala which really enhances the flavor of the sambar instead of using ready made sambar podi. We can add coconut which makes the sambar more thicker in consistency but I have not added coconut. We can serve Mullangi Sambar with Rice, Idli/dosa or Pongal.
