Kosambari is a typical South Indian Salad made from pulses (split legumes) which is called Moong Lentil. In Marathi, all salads are collectively called koshmbir.
This salad is eaten as snacks but usually as a part of a full course meal.
Kosambari is distributed during festivals and on special occasions. It is distributed to masses during Ganesha Chaturthi and Sri Rama Navami.
During Varamahalakshmi and Gowri festivals, women invite each other and exchange Kosambari along with turmeric and vermilion to celebrate divinity in the feminine.
Kosambari' contains a number of veggies that are high in fiber content, so they can stimulate the production of healthy digestive juices.
