    This has to be one of the worst sambhar powder recipes I have ever seen -- coconut milk, curry powder & saffron are NEVER added to a proper sambhar. Sambhar is made with toor dal NOT chana dal!

    In fact, Indian cooks never use curry powder!!

    This receipe does not do justice to sambhar. Sambhar is a South Indian curry. Coconut milk has never been a part of the ingredients of authentic sambhar. There's also a whole lot more vegetables in sambhar than what is indicated in the recipe above.

    The authentic recipe of Sambhar does not use coconut milk. this recipe gives it a stew like quality and that is not sambhar.

    This is not how traditional sambhar is made in India. It does not have coconut milk (let alone 2 tins of it or channa dal. It is made with "toor dal" lentils. Find toor dal and good quality packaged "sambhar spice" in any Indian grocery store.
