Double Horse Sambar Powder is a ready-to-use South Indian spice blend formulated to give traditional sambar its characteristic aroma, warmth and depth of flavor. Made from a balanced mix of roasted spices, it delivers a warm, earthy base with moderate heat and a fragrant finish that complements lentils and vegetables. The powder is designed for convenience without compromising on the layered taste typical of slow-cooked sambar, and can also be used to season rasam, vegetable stews, soups and mixed-vegetable curries. Its versatile profile makes it suitable for both everyday cooking and special meals, helping recreate restaurant-style sambar at home with consistent results.

To use, add sambar powder toward the end of cooking for best aroma: combine cooked toor dal and boiled vegetables with tamarind water (or your preferred souring agent), then stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of sambar powder per serving, adjusting to taste. Simmer for 3–5 minutes to blend flavors, then finish with a hot oil tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves and asafoetida if desired. Store the powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and use within the recommended period on the pack for peak freshness.
