Notes about this recipe

    We adored this, and it earned sambar powder a permanent place in the spice rack. We didn't find it to be too spicy at all, and cutting down the sambar would definitely result in a bland product. I've made it with both her blend and a store-bought version, and both are good, though obviously homemade wins. This is really more of a template than a recipe, and I tend to add lots more veg than she calls for. With some brown rice, it's the best lunch a bloke could ask for.

    This stew was much too spicy for my kids (and I only added half the sambar powder) and the adults who like spicy food thought it was just meh. It might have been better with homemade sambar but there are so many great Indian lentil recipes that I don't feel compelled to revisit this one.
