Step 1
Dry roast moong dal and rice separately until it is hot to touch. Do not over fry it.
Step 2
Fry cashew nuts in a tsp of ghee and keep it aside.
Step 3
Mix both rice and dal, wash and pressure cook adding salt, 2 1/2 - 3 cups of water for 4-5 whistles.(I used old rice, so added 3 cups of water). The rice has to be cooked in such a way that it should be mushy.
Step 4
Open the cooker, once the pressure subsides. Mash the rice and dal well, when it is hot.
Step 5
Heat oil + ghee, add pepper, cumin seeds, saute for a few seconds, then add finely chopped ginger, curry leaves, saute for 2-3 seconds and pour it over the rice + dal mix.
Step 6
Add fried cashew nuts and mix everything well.
Step 7
Alternatively you can add rice+dal mix to the seasoning as I have done and mix well on low flame for 2 minutes.
Step 8
Turn off the heat and serve hot with sambar or gothsu or coconut chutney.
