Receta Barnyard millet and moong dhal Kanji
This is the same recipe as the traditional rice kanji that we used to make. These days I have been making it with millets for a lighter evening dinner. This pairs well with any spicy side dishes or even pickle. Preparation is very easy. We have to add all the ingredients and pressure cook. I usually make this as an one pot dish in the pressure cooker. Here it is served with a spicy coconut thogayal. This is a perfect convalescent food as well.
Ingredients: 1. Millets, 1 cup.2. Whole moong dhal, 1/4 cup.3. Grated coconut, 1 tablespoon.4. Salt as per taste.5. Garlic, 2 cloves.6. Cumin seeds, 1/2 teaspoon.
Preparation:Wash the millets and the dhal together. In a pressure cooker or Instant Pot, add 4 cups of water and add everything. Mix well and pressure cook for 15 minutes up to three whistles (for the Instant Pot Pressure cooker mode for 15 minutes). Once the pressure is down, open and mash everything well. Add more water to get the desired consistency and serve.
