VARAGU ARISI PONGAL RECIPE/KODO MILLET PONGAL-MILLET RECIPES

varagu arisi pongal recipe

Recently I started making upma & pongal varieties using millets. I tried Ven pongal using Varagu arisi( Kodo millet in English, Koden/Kodra in Hindi, Harka in Kannada, Arikelu in Telugu, Koovaragu in Malayalam- Source-Wikipedia) for the first time. It came out very well. 

As you all know Varagu rice/Kodo millet has amazing health benefits. It is basically a digestion friendly millet. It is rich in phytochemicals, Phytate that helps in reduction of cancer risks. It helps to reduce the body weight which is most needed for obese people. It helps to overcome irregular period problems in women. It helps to reduce knee & joint pains. It is good for diabetic people. It reduces nervous disorders especially in eyes. 

This varagu arisi pongal is a very easy and tummy filling breakfast recipe. Just 1/2 cup of varagu arisi is enough to serve 2-3 people because it doubles in quantity once its cooked. It tastes very similar to our regular rice pongal with full of flavors. My daughter Raksha loves pongal a lot. When I gave this for her breakfast today, she couldn’t identify its varagu rice pongal and not our usual one. We had with coconut chutney as side dish. It was yum. Do try this easy and healthy pongal recipe for your breakfast or dinner. I am sure your entire family would love it.

Last week i shared instant millet dosa using mixed millets energy mix powder.Though i make it very often,i wanted to try a dosa recipe with kambu (in tamil)/Pearl millet ( in English)/Bajra(in Hindi) as i got tempted by seeing my fellow bloggers post.Recently my friend Shalini was telling me about kambu dosai which she has been making for her breakfast regularly.So I took this recipe from her and tried today for the first time.She told me to use brown rice and pearl millet but i used raw rice as i din’t have brown rice in stock.So feel free to use brown rice instead of raw rice in this recipe.You will get good results and its a healthier option too.I will try to post kambu adai and kambu koozh recipes soon.Lets see how to prepare this kambu dosai for breakfast/dinner.This dosa tastes the best when it is served hot.It becomes slightly chewy when its cooled down but overall its a very flavorful and healthy breakfast recipe.Check out my other millet recipes below.

Grind it to a smooth paste adding enough water and salt.(I used the soaked water itself).Transfer the batter to a vessel. Kambu-dosai-step1

  • Let the batter ferment over night or for 10-12 hours.The next day morning batter would have raise well.Mix it well and check the consistency.If it is too thick,add little water say 1/4 cup and mix well.Heat dosa pan and pour a ladleful of batter.Spread it well if u want to make thin,lacy dosas OR spread it little if u want thick soft dosas.Make it as per your wish.Drizzle a tsp of oil and cook for a minute.Cover it with a lid and cook the dosa if u want crispy ones.Do not flip the dosa.If u want thick dosas like utappam,flip the dosa and cook for a while.Remove and serve hot.

    Enjoy with your favourite chutney.I served it with coconut chutney and idli podi !




  • Note


  • Use enough water while grinding the batter.Batter has to ferment for 10 hours minimum in cold weather.If the climate is hot,this batter will ferment quickly and it will become sour.So keep an eye.
  • Use brown rice instead of raw rice.U can use idli rice too.
  • If u don’t want to use rice at all,just follow 2:1 ratio of kambu & urad dal and grind the batter as mentioned above.
  • This dosa becomes soft when its cooled down.So serve n eat hot !


  • Have this healthy millet dosa for your breakfast/dinner.I enjoyed it with coconut chutney,idli podi and had milk with Lion dates syrup.

    Millet-dosa-step1
    • Add this to the batter and mix well.Check for salt. Batter should be slightly watery.Heat dosa pan and pour the batter in a circular manner starting from outwards towards center.Fill the holes with little batter.

    Note

    • Adding rice flour & curd is optional here.Instead u can add a tbsp oof ragi flour for easy removal of dosa.
    • If u want to make thick dosas,add little water & make dosas thick.For thin,lacy dosas,add more water & make the batter watery.But adding too much of water makes the dosa look dry.So take care.
    • Also if u don’t have time to have saute onions,just add pepper corns and jeera to the batter and make dosa.It also tastes equally good.



    Enjoy eating this healthy energy mix mixed millet powder dosa for your breakfast/dinner.It is easily digestible too Smile

    NARTHANGAI SADAM | CITRON RICE RECIPE

    Narthangai-sadam-recipe

    I am a big big fan of Narthangai(Citron fruits in English). Narthangai has amazing health benefits. My MIL used to say Narthangai helps to cure 108 diseases. I am not sure how far it is true. But I know its very helpful for pitha troubles & indigestion which I have experienced it.

    Before marriage I used to get narthangai pickle from my Aachi in Tirunelveli. I can have a plateful of rice with it. I was thinking that pickle alone can be made with narthangai. But after marriage, when I tasted Narthangai pachadi from my MIL’s hands, I loved it more than pickle.

    Recently we had a trip to Kumbakonam. Sendhil’s maami gave us a bag full of citron fruits/Narthangai from their backyard. We prepared pachadi with almost 3/4th of the quantity and made this rice with the remaining. It tastes very similar to lemon rice. Sendhil love this a lot. Its one of the yummiest Narthangai recipes. Today I made this rice for his lunch box. and now it has become my favourite too. You can serve this yummy rice variety with fryums, chips, vadam & pickle. I know all your eyes goes to those colorful fryums, right ??

    I bought them in a small shop in Lee bazaar, Salem just by seeing its different shapes & color.
    Ok, Lets see how to make this flavourful, yummy narthangai sadam. Here is a picture of narthangai/citron fruit for your reference.

    Narthangai

    Narthangai sadam recipe


    Narthangai sadam recipe Delicious rice variety using citron fruits/Narthangai - Tastes similar to lemon rice
    Cuisine: Indian
    Category: Lunch
    Serves: Serves 3
    Prep time: 5 Minutes
    Cook time: 20 Minutes
    Total time: 25 Minutes


    INGREDIENTS

    • Rice - 1/2 cup ( I use steamed rice. You can use raw rice too)
    • Water - 1.25 cups
    • Gingely oil - 1 tsp
    • Narthangai / citron fruit - 4 nos ( around 1/3 cup juice)
    • Salt - as needed
    • Asafetida/Hing - 1/8 tsp
    To temper
    • Gingely oil - 1 tbsp
    • Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
    • Urad dal - 2 tsp
    • Chana dal - 1 tbsp
    • Red chillies  or Green chilli – 5-6 nos ( pinch into small pieces, use 6 if your chillies are less spicy)
    • Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
    • Asafetida/Hing - 1/8 tsp
    • Curry leaves- few
    METHOD

    • Wash & Pressure cook rice adding required water & a tsp of oil. Rice should be fluffy & separate. In a plate spread the rice adding little salt & a tsp of gingely oil. It helps the rice to separate when it cools down.

    • Boil water in a pan & add the citron fruits/Narthangai( don’t cut it) to it. Let it boil for a minute. Then switch off the stove & remove the narthangai. It would become soft & now you can easily squeeze the juice using your hands. Take the juice from the fruit & strain the seeds. To this juice, add salt & hing. Set aside.
    narthangai sadam - 1

    • In a kadai temper all the ingredients given under “ to temper” in the same order. Then add the extracted narthangai juice & switch off the flame immediately. Remove & keep in a bowl.
    narthangai sadam - 2
    • Mix this juice with the cooked rice little by little. Add few tsp of gingely oil. Check for salt & adjust the taste.Yummy Narthangai sadam is ready to serve.
    narthangai sadam - 3

    • I served with colorful fryums for my daughter & with narthangai pickle for us. It was yum!




    Note

    • While squeezing the fruit, do not over do it because the juice will taste bitter if  you over squeeze it.
    • Boiling narthangai in water is optional. But it helps to remove the bitterness on the skin & it helps for easy squeezing too.
    • U can use combination of green chillies & red chillies while tempering. But my MIL used to say red chillies tastes the best for this rice. Here I used 2 byadgi chillies & 2 spicy chillies.
    • U may not need all the juice for the rice. So add little by little & check for taste whenever needed.




    Serve this yummy rice with fryums, vadam & pickle.

    DEEPAVALI MARUNDHU RECIPE - DEEPAVALI LEGIYAM

    Diwali-marundhu-recipe
    Last year I shared my mom’s Tirunelveli style ginger legiyam recipe/Inji legiyam as easy deepavali marundhu recipe. But I wanted to try the actual Diwali marundhu recipe at home for long time. Recently I bought deepavali legiyam from Salem “Home foods” as suggested by Sendhil’s friend. 

    As we liked its taste very much, this time I made diwali legiyam on my own referring my cook book and Chitra amma’s kitchen recipe. I made it using the ingredients which I had in my pantry. Also I din’t want to go for soaking version as I had less time in hand. So I dry roasted everything, ground & prepared diwali marundhu powder and then I made legiyam with that powder. It came out very well. 

    I won’t say this is the authentic version because I have not used some important ingredients like kandanthipili, arisi thipili etc. But I am sure this will help for digestion of oily & ghee rich sweets and snacks we relish for Diwali. Do try this deepavali marundhu recipe. Its not that much difficult to make as I thought. Anybody can make it easily. Just have a tsp of it in empty stomach for 3 days. It keeps you free from indigestion issues. 

    I wish all my friends & readers a very happy Diwali. Thanks a lot for trying my Diwali recipes and sharing pictures with me. I am really touched. Do shower your encouragement and support always !

    Serves: Serves 4
    Prep time: 10 Minutes
    Cook time: 10 Minutes
    Total time: 20 Minutes


    INGREDIENTS
    For marundhu powder
    • Dhania/Coriander seeds - 1 tbsp
    • Ajwain/Omam - 3/4 tbsp
    • Black pepper - 1/2 tbsp
    • Cumin seeds/Jeera - 1/2 tbsp
    • Khuskhus/Poppy seeds – 1 tsp
    • Cardamom - 1 no
    • Cloves - 1 no
    • Cinnamon - 1 no ( small)
    • Jathikai – a small piece ( optional)
    • Dry ginger powder - 1 tsp ( use 1 inch piece if u use dry ginger)
    For syrup
    • Grated jaggery - 1/4 cup
    • Water - 3 tbsp
    • Ghee - 2 tsp
    • Sesame oil/Gingely oil - 1 tsp
    HOW TO MAKE DWALI MARUNDHU - METHOD

    • Take all the ingredients mentioned under”for marundhu powder” . Dry roast in a kadai in low flame for 2-3 minutes till you get a nice medicine smell. Make sure you don’t burn them.
    Diwali-marundhu-step1
    • Grind all the ingredients to a fine powder. Sieve if you wish. I dint do it. Take the ground powder in a bowl & add water to make it a thick paste. Set aside. In a kadai, take the grated jaggery and add water to cover it. When the jaggery is melted completely, strain the syrup and again boil the jaggery till it becomes frothy.
    Diwali-marundhu-step2
    • Simmer the flame at this stage and add the ground paste. Mix well till it starts to thicken in medium flame.
    Diwali-marundhu-step3
    Diwali-marundhu-step4
    • When it starts to thicken, add gingely oil. Mix well. When it gets absorbed, add 1/2 tsp of ghee at regular intervals. When the marundhu starts to leave the sides of pan, add the remaining ghee and remove the kadai from the pan immediately. It looks likes a semi solid paste when hot. Transfer to a plate. 
    • When the marundhu becomes warm, touch it with your hands. If it is non-sticky and if you can roll as soft glossy ball,that's the right consistency. Store in a clean bottle and use whenever needed. If you stir for more time, it will become chewy. 
    Diwali-marundhu-step5
    Stays good for months when refrigerated ! Have a tsp of this after a heavy meal or in empty stomach for 3 days. It aids digestion & keep you free from indigestion issues !


    Note

    • As suggested in my book, you can add 2-3 small stick of kandanthipili, arisi thipili and 1/4 tsp of saunf/soambu while dry roasting to make the authentic recipe.
    • If you don’t want follow roast and grind method, you can soak all the ingredients in water for an hour and proceed as given above.
    • As soon as the mixture starts to leave the pan and becomes together,remove it from the flame else it will become hard and you have to eat it as a chocolate. But it tastes fine & its health benefits retain in all the ways. So no worries.
    • U can grind this powder in bulk quantity. Store and use whenever you need.



    Have a tsp of this diwali marundhu in empty stomach for 3 days. It will help you for better digestion.
