In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil and add mustard seeds, curry leaves, and a pinch of asafoetida to create the tempering.





Add chopped onions, garlic, and assorted vegetables to the pot, sautéing until they begin to soften.




Stir in the tamarind paste, sambar powder, and salt, then pour in the cooked lentils and enough water to reach the desired consistency.





Simmer the stew for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot.
