BM #123 Week 4 Day 2 - 

Proso Millet Pongal is a hearty one pot meal. With Moong dal and Proso millet, this is one recipe that cannot go wrong.

In our attempts at getting used to Millets on a daily basis, we found that Idli, Pongal, Kheer and Sambar Sadam are the safest recipes to get used to.

Ingredients - 

Proso Millet/Varigalu 1 cup
Moong Dal 1/2 cup
Cumin seeds 1/2 tsp
Turmeric 1/4 tsp
Pepper corns 1/4 cup
Salt as needed
Cashews, roasted
Ghee 2 tsp


Method Of Preparation -

Roast the moong dal in about 1/2 tsp of ghee until it turns a shade of brown.

Add the proso millet, cumin seeds, salt and turmeric. Add about 3 1/2 cups of water and pressure cook (for 2-3 whistles or 10 minutes in Instant Pot). After the pressure drops, remove and mix well.

In a separate pan, heat ghee and roast the pepper corns and cashews and transfer them into the pongal. Mix well and serve it hot with any accompaniment of your choice.
