I wanted to try arachuvitta sambar without dal for rice for a long time. My friend told it tastes great for both rice and idli. So I wanted to give a shot and I had bookmarked some YouTube videos too. Finally I tried it last week for my lunch as I was in short of toor dal in my kitchen. This is more like Tamil brahmin’s style varuthu aracha kuzhambu / arachuvitta kulambu for rice but without using dal.
You don’t need to use toor dal or moong dal in this recipe. The aroma of freshly roasted and ground spices is the highlight for this sambar recipe. It helps to give great flavor and thickness to this sambar. Not only dal, less tamarind and coconut is used in this recipe.
When you feel bored of the regular paruppu sambar for rice, you can try this. If you want to avoid dal in your diet for health reasons, you can make this kuzhambu. As I prepared this with mixed vegetables like carrot, beans, potato, chayote, brinjal it came out very flavorful, tasty and healthy. You can also add drumstick, lady’s finger, pumpkin, turnip if you like.
You can also prepare this masala powder in advance and make this sambar instantly. Bachelors and working women would find it helpful. Friends , do try this sambar recipe without dal and enjoy with rice. I personally liked it with idli, dosa too !

nice and easy sambhar ... will try this out some day.. Thanks
Sister Can we skip half tsp of sambhar powder, I guess roast And grind ingredients are similar to it except coconut.. ... Or can we roast coconut and grind with sambhar powder and add it with kulambu
1/2 tsp sambar powder is just to enhance flavor. You can skip it. Roasting coconut and grinding with sambar powder gives a different taste to the kuzhambu. Freshly ground spices aroma would be missing.
