About Pumpkin sambaar
Pumpkin Sambaar is a flavorful South Indian dish that showcases the rich culinary tradition of the region. Made with cubes of tender pumpkin simmered in a tangy tamarind-based broth, this dish is spiced with a blend of fresh-ground sambaar powder, turmeric, and cumin seeds, and garnished with curry leaves. Lentils, typically toor dal or moong dal, are a key ingredient, making Pumpkin Sambaar packed with plant-based protein and fiber. The pumpkin adds natural sweetness and nutrients like beta-carotene and vitamins A and C, supporting eye health and immunity. Low in fat and full of antioxidants, this dish is a wholesome option for balanced meals, although the sodium content may be higher due to tamarind and salt. Traditionally served with rice, it is a vibrant example of healthy and hearty South Indian cuisine.
