Cumin- 1 tsp

  • Heat a pan, add two spoons of oil and do the seasoning with the above listed ingredients.
  • Add three cups of water and let it boil.
  • In the boiling water, add the washed moong dal and boil again.
  • When the dal is partially boiled, add the salt and two spoons of oil.
  • This is to prevent the formation of hard balls of rava, when added.
  • Add the rice rava and stir it quickly and constantly to prevent it from, forming lumps.
  • Cover with a lid and cook for ten minutes over a low flame.

We had it with tomato pickle and some sugar.

Note:

  • Normally curry leaves are also added. But, I don’t have them today. So, they are omitted.
  • Cumin and ginger give the real punch to this dish. So, don’t omit them.
  • Rice rava can be prepared at home very easily. Wash the rice nicely, spread on a cloth and let it dry partly. Then grind the partly dried rice, to make rava (rice grinded to tiny pieces). After grinding, separate the flour and rava using a sieve.
