Indian food recipe (Sambha)
I'm looking for "indian" food specialists to help here data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7Our local Indian restaurant serves a dish that we absolutely adore and I wanted to try to make at home, but I can't find a recipe anywhere.
On the menu it's call "Sambha" but I've seen the same dish elsewhere called "Posh Spice". The basic description is
Amazing mixture of chicken or lamb with fresh cream, sugar, egg, mango pulp & coconut impart sumptuous richness to this lightly spiced curry and sprinkled with fresh coriander Click to expand... Chances are it's not a traditional dish, or maybe it is but known under a different name. I just wondered if anyone recognises it and knows where I could get the recipe? Could it be called Sambar as well?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sambar_(dish) That's what Google gives me when I search but it sounds completely different.
What I'm looking for doesn't have peas or lentils in it, it's very fruity and mild. The sauce looks dark red to light brown and fairly smooth (not much bits other than the meat). That's a Samber/Sambar.
It's quite Tomatoey but is basically just sauce and meat. I used to love this dish as it was a more flavourful Rogan Josh.
Whilst i remember it being slightly fruity, it is spicy as well. Each curry house will obviously have their own variation on it with regards spelling and recipe but if you seach Samber you should have no probs finding a recipe data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 I've had a look at the Sambar recipes and it really doesn't look like it.
If anything it sounds more like a Korma but with tomato in it? Samber or Sambar is a dish similar to daal and is made from yellow lentils, veggies and coconut. It's a South Indian dish.
What you are describing sounds like a "made for the UK" dish data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 Yep, my mum makes it ... restaurants usually serve it with idlis or or dosas; but we (of S. Indian origin) have it with anything ... is essentially a spicy chunky thick vegetable soup Hi,
On both counts, I agree! Having said that, even though Sambar is extremely common & popular with South Indian dishes, it is also quite common in other regional parts of Indian cuisine & even them=n, I do believe there are quite a few variations of it?
Maybe if the OP can be a little more specific what type of dish she had, what it was called or maybe find out from the restaurant what region of cooking/dish they catered for, then maybe we can narrow things down..
Suave! My fave curry, gorgeous data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 All the info I have is what I put in the OP.
It's basically a main dish that you'd have instead of say a korma or tikka massala or whatever.
I just have it with rice.
I have no idea what region it may come from. I suspect like other said that it's a UK made up dish.
I was going to ask the restaurant when we go there next but I wondered if anyone else here knew of it and how to make it data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
