ARISI/RICE SUNDAL
VERY VERY SIMPLE ONE POT MEAL
One day I was very much confused 
what to make for dinner and asking my friends I chat with ,what their plans for dinner.Then suddenly 
this simple yet very flavourful one I got to remember,try once,may be you like it too! I wanted this to be in my space as this is a family favourite! My mom makes another variant too,which I will post later…This recipe will sound like pongal+Upma…
but trust me,the taste is nothing related to any of these dishes..!
I served with coconut thogayal,I just made a variation of adding a sprig of curry leaves in it …
INGREDIENTS
| Raw rice/long grain rice | 1 cup |
| Yellow moong dal/Pasi paruppu | 1/4 cup |
| Grated coconut,for garnish(Optional) | 3-4 tblsp |
| Salt | 1 & 1/4 tsp or as needed |
| Water | 2 cups |
To temper
| Oil | 2 tsp |
| Mustard | 3/4 tsp |
| Green chilli,slit | 3-4 nos |
| curry leaves | 1 sprig |
| Asafetida | 1/8 tsp |
Method:
- In a heavy bottomed pan( I used cooker itself),dry roast rice and dal together till the rice turns milky white and nice aroma rises. (I will soon update the picture to show the stage).Keep aside.
- Add the oil in the cooker directly and temper with the items given in order.
- Add two cups water,salt and the roasted rice & dal mixture and mix well.
- Pressure cook for 3 whistles in medium flame.
- Serve hot with little coconut gratings and coconut thogayal for accompaniment… My H loves with sugar too..!

You can add a tsp of coconut oil if you dont have coconut grating…

Raji,

Looks soooooo yummy .. Loved the name for the dish Raji and different too. In madurai the sourashtra people makes Ven pongal which is very similar to this but different to what we make..as our pongal will be mushy.. Some time I too make this kind of uthiri pongal(My name for the dish) as I love it so much. Seasoning One addition is I add Pepper fried in ghee others are almost same. But the rice variety I use is Jeeraga samba. But never tried with thogayal will surely make this combo soon.
Even my mil makes this, but i never tried it. we call it usila.
nice clicks.love the combo of thengai thogiyal with this yummy rice sundal
Wow.. it looks fantastic!
turned out so good........looks very tempting..
That looks so pretty.. reminds me of pongal but I think the different seasonings must make it taste different.
I love the pic.. so tempting..the ingredient list is so simple will try for sure! thanks for the idea.
