Khara Pongal

This is very much my mom's recipe and I don't know where she caught hold of this one.

Green Gram (Moong) – 1 cup
Rice – 1 ½ Cups
Pepper – 8 grains
Jeera - 1 tsp
Turmeric – ½ tsp
Oil for Seasoning – 2 tbsp
Seasoning (Mustard seeds, black gram seeds, red chilli and curry leaves)
Salt to taste


Fry green gram. Wash rice and fried green gram. Pressure cook it along with a little turmeric and salt. Grind to powder pepper and jeera and keep aside. Once the pressure cooker is cooled down, fry oil in a deep pan (kadai). Add seasoning, pepper jeera powder, remaining salt. Leave It for about 30 secs. Then add the boiled rice and green gram. Let it boil for 5 - 8 mins. Serve it with Salad or green chutney
