Hi all,
       Today's recipe is known as Amirtha Palagaram otherwise known as God's Food. Actually this recipe is a very old one as its received from my granny... Its a healthy n tasty dish as always. This dish has the goodness from jagery , dal and rice... enjoy the recipe.



Ingredients

Rice 1 cup
1/2 cup channa dal
jaggery 1 cup grated
cardamom 4
coconut grated 3/4 cup
water 4 cups
salt a pinch

Method

Soak the rice and dal for minimum 2 hours or over night.

























Grind the soaked rice, shredded coconut and cardamom together with water.


Make sure the ground paste is runny and not thick.


Meanwhile pressure cook the soaked dal for 2 whistles.


Bring the 4 cups water to boil with salt.


Once the water is boiling slowly add the ground rice to it, make sure to keep stirring  so the rice doesn't form lumps.


Keep stirring till the rice grains are completely cooked.


Now add the grated jaggery to it ( I used blocks jus like that which was a mistake) and mix well till the mixture is blended well and is somewhat thick.


Now its time to add the cooked channa dal to the mixture and mix well.



Once done transfer to an airtight container and let it col before keeping in the fridge.
