THIRUVATHARAI KALI

This is usually made on thirvathari, with a kottu with all country vegetables. When I thought for prasadams I chose this since it's my favourite.





INGREDIENTS

Raw rice - 1 cup

Moong dal - 1/4 cup

Jaggery - 1 cup

Grated coconut - 1/4 cup

Cardamon powder - one generous pinch

ghee , cashew as needed.

METHOD

Dry roast rice and moong dal still it changes colour and ground it like a suji.



In a pan add water to the grated jaggery and make a syrup and filter it.

Boil 21/2 cups of water , add the grounded rice to that and cook until it cooks.

Add the jaggery syrup  and grated coconut , cardamon powder to that and cook until it blends.



Heat ghee in a pan and fry cashews and add to this.
