Directions

Step 1

Wash the rice and moong dal together under running water until the water runs clear. Soak them for about 10 minutes to help them cook evenly and achieve a soft texture.

Step 2

Heat ghee in a cooking pot over medium heat. Add cumin and allow it to release its aroma. Add onion, ginger, and garlic, then cook until the mixture becomes soft.

Step 3

Add tomato and cook until it blends into the base.

Step 4

Stir in turmeric and salt to distribute the seasoning evenly.

Step 5

Add the soaked rice and moong dal to the pot. Mix gently so the grains are coated with the prepared base.

Step 6

Pour in water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and allow it to cook slowly until the rice and dal become soft and start to combine into a creamy consistency.

Step 7

Stir lightly to achieve the desired texture. Serve warm, allowing the natural flavors to remain mild and comforting.
