[ID: First image is a large, shallow dish filled with a bright yellowish orange soup filled with red cabbage and green onion and drizzled with coconut milk. A halved samosa sits in the soup and a plate of samosa is visible in the background. The second image is a close-up on the samosa resting in the soup, showing its deep brown filling. End ID.]
Samusa thouk (Burmese soup with split chickpeas, tamarind, and samosa)
Samusa thouk is a bright, savory, slightly spicy soup often eaten with leftover samusa. The samusa are broken and placed in a bowl, and the soup is then spooned over them.
My recipe makes Burnese samusa that are flavored with turmeric and black mustard seed and made richly sweet with the addition of jaggery—they play beautifully against the tartness of the tamarind in the soup. You may also use Indian samosa from frozen or from take-out.
Recipe under the cut!
Patreon | Tip jar
Ingredients:
8 Burmese samusa
1 Indian bay leaf (tej patta)*
2-3 dried Indian red chilis, broken in half
2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 tsp brown mustard seeds (rai)
1/3 cup neutral oil
1 red onion, diced
8 cloves garlic, minced (3 Tbsp)
1-inch chunk ginger, minced
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp sweet paprika (optional)
1 tsp coriander seeds, toasted and ground
1/2 tsp black peppercorns, toasted and ground
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup besan (chickpea flour)
1/2 cup water
8 cups (2 liters) vegetable stock
1 Tbsp tamarind paste
1/2 cup chana dal (split chickpeas), soaked in cool water for an hour**
1/4 to 1/2 cup coconut milk (optional)
Salt to taste (about 1 1/2 tsp)
Shredded red cabbage, mint, green onion, cilantro, and lemon or lime to serve
*Indian bay leaves are distinct from Turkish or California laurel bay leaves and have a different taste and fragrance. They will be labelled "tej patta" in an Asian or halaal grocery store, and have three vertical lines running along them from root to tip, rather than radiating out diagonally from a central vein. Omit if you don’t have any.
**You may substitute toor dal (split pigeon peas) for chana dal, or use moong dal (yellow lentils) in a pinch. These grams would not need to be soaked. If you have not soaked the chana dal, the cooking time will increase by about 20 minutes.
Instructions:
1. Heat 1/3 cup of a neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola, in a large pot on medium.
2. Add bay leaf and dried chilis and fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add cumin and mustard seeds and fry until they are fragrant and popping into the air.
3. Add onion and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (15-20 minutes).
4. Meanwhile, heat a dry skillet over medium-low heat. Add chickpea flour and toast, stirring often, for a few minutes until fragrant and several shades darker. In a mixing bowl, whisk chickpea flour with 1/2 cup water until smooth.
5. Add ginger and garlic to the pot with the onion and fry, stirring occasionally, about 30 seconds until no longer raw-smelling. Add ground spices (turmeric, paprika, coriander, and black pepper) and fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Add lentils to the pot and toast for 2 minutes.
7. Add tamarind paste, vegetable stock, and chickpea flour mixture and stir to combine. Raise heat to bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer.
8. Cook for 20-30 minutes, until the dal is tender and cooked through. Add coconut milk, if desired, and salt. Taste and adjust spices.
9. Serve warm over broken samusa. Top with shredded red cabbage and fresh herbs.

THE STORY OF MASALA DOSA:
     Then are many stories around India, but according to the wiki, it originated from my hometown Udupi. It was here in Udupi, that the dosa’s were made crisp and served. One of the local restaurants in Udupi started to serve potato masala stuffed dosa as a variation and also to lower the coconut chutney consumption. In those days, coconut-based dishes were considered pricey and dosas cannot be consumed without any side dish. Gradually stuffed dosa became one of the norms and the migrant community took this variety to Mumbai and exposed it to a broader audience. It was very well received in the cosmopolitan city and that’s how it became one of the popular dose varieties.
THE SPECIAL OF MASALA DOSA:
Masala dosa are crispy, soft, savory, and healthy crepes made with rice and lentil batter. The dosa is gluten-free and dairy-free, with a sturdy yet soft texture that’s great for holding a hearty homemade potato filling. To make the batter, lentils and rice are soaked for several hours and then blended together.
WHY PEOPLE LIKE MASALA DOSA:

The sambar and even the masala dosa have some of the major pure Indian spices, which will give it that wow factor you have been looking for in breakfast food. Masala Dosa is one that is crisp, aromatic, flavourful, and has a potato masala or spiced seasoned potatoes stuffed in it. These crispy crepes are quite addictive and delicious.

Delicious Sambar Masala Recipe with Suhana Sambar Masala 
Do you know about the origins of Sambar? This lentil-based stew prepared with vegetables, tamarind, and spices was introduced in Tamil Nadu during the Marathi reign in Tanjore and can be found throughout South India. Having a tangy and savoury taste, sambar goes well with rice, dosa, idli, upma, vada, etc. It’s rich in protein, and you can have it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, making you feel satiated. You can make an authentic sambar with the right spices at home. If you can’t, here’s an easy way to make sambar – through Suhana Masala. Here’s how you can make traditional South Indian sambar at home easily!  
How do you make a sambar using the traditional South Indian method? 
List of the ingredients needed for making authentic sambar  
Here’s what you need to make sambar:  
Toor dal – 1 cup   
Vegetables of your choice – shallots, drumstick, potato, capsicum, broad beans, ladies finger, cut into broad pieces (you can add any one of these with shallots to make sambar)  
Tamarind pulp – 1 cup (soak a lemon-sized tamarind in hot water and extract the pulp)  
Suhana sambar masala – 2 tablespoons  
Oil, mustard seeds, hing, dry red chillies, and curry leaves for tempering.   
Water and salt as required  
Jaggery – 1 tablespoon (optional)  
Coriander leaves (optional)  
Step-by-step sambar recipe with Suhana sambar masala   
Add toor dal and vegetables of your choice to a pressure cooker and cook for four to five whistles.   
Meanwhile, peel the shallots. In a kadhai, add oil and fry the shallots. Once cooked, add the tamarind pulp and let it cook for some time until the shallots become soft. Ensure to cook this on simmer mode. If you do this on high flame, the tamarind pulp may become thick in no time, and it might affect the taste of your sambar.   
Once your toor dal and vegetables are cooked, add the mashed lentils and vegetables to the tamarind pulp and shallots mix, with Suhana sambar powder and jaggery, with salt and let it boil for 10 minutes.   
You can also cook the vegetables directly in the tamarind pulp, but this may take a while. So, if you are on a time crunch, just use a pressure cooker!  
Add water if your sambar is thick. If not, add oil and mustard seeds in a small frying pan. After they splutter, add hing, curry leaves and dry red chilly. Add this to your sambar and turn the stove off.   
Authentic South Indian sambar is ready with a Suhana mix in no time!   
Serving Suggestions   
Serve it hot with rice, idli, or dosa. If eaten with rice, adding ghee or sesame oil may enhance the sambar taste! You can garnish with coriander leaves before serving. However, it’s entirely your choice, as the taste does not alter with coriander, but this will give off a wafting aroma!   
Health benefits of spices and herbs used in Suhana sambar masala  
Suhana sambar masala has no added preservatives or MSG, making it completely safe to consume. Turmeric in the masala acts against inflammation in the body and reduces infections and allergic reactions. Cumin and fenugreek aid in digestion, regulate blood sugar levels and promote healthy blood circulation. You can add sambar to your daily diet, and it’s highly nutritional. Protein-packed lentils and vegetables like shallots will help your body cool down during summer!   
Here’s to making delicious sambar at home with Suhana! You can get this from our website.   
FAQs  
Can I use other types of lentils instead of toor dal?  
You can also add moong dal to sambar, but this may alter the taste of sambar a bit. Or you can use both, depending on your choice!  
Is it necessary to use tamarind pulp, or can I substitute it with something else?  
Tamarind pulp is necessary to make sambar. If you don’t use tamarind, add local tomatoes instead of apple tomatoes for a tangy flavour.   
What vegetables can I add to the sambar?  
To your sambar, add potato, drumstick, raw mango, broad beans, carrot, capsicum, radish, pumpkin (white and red), and shallots.
