Ven Pongal


The most easiest and wonderful recipe!

Ingredients:
Raw rice 1 cup
Moong dal 1/2 cup
Pepper corns, curry leaves, cumin seeds for seasoning
Salt, asafoetida for taste
Cashews for garnishing
Ghee - 2 tbsp
Procedure:
1.Cook rice and dal in 4 cups of water. Switch off the stove after the pressure cooker whistles twice.
2. Add ghee in a pan; once the ghee gets heated, add cumin seeds, pepper corns and curry leaves and allow them to pop.
3. Now add the cooked rice and dal , mix well. Garnish with roasted cashews.
Ven pongal can be served with chutney/sambar. But a better combo would be pongal & brinjal kothsu.
