Sweet Pongal


Ingredients:

Raw rice -1 cup
Siru paruppu (split husked moong dhal) -1/2 cup
Ghee
Edible camphor (optional)
Cashew nuts & Raisins fried
Cardamom
Coconut milk

Method:

In a pressure cooker add 1cup of raw rice,1/2 cup siru paruppu,2cups of water and 1cup of coconut milk( you can also take equal proportions of water & coconut milk) .
Add 2-3 tablespoon of ghee and pressure cook it (for 3 sizzling sound).
Once it is cooked remove the lid and in a low flame stir the mixture.
Add crushed jaggery.
Stir continuously and add fried cashews,raisins and cardamom.
Sprinkle little edible camphor. Don't worry if it seems to be very liquid, if you leave it for few minutes to cool down it will turn to semi-thick consistency.
