Ulundhu kanji recipe a popular healthy porridge made with rice and urad dal.ulundhu kanji recipe

Ulundhu kanji recipe with step by step pictures and video.This ulunthu kanji is a healthy porridge made with black urad dal and rice as main ingredients.

This is one of the kanji recipes I wanted to give a try since a long time.I got the recipe from a friend as its a staple in their house for lunch atleast once a week.Black urad dal has a lot of health benefits and is very good for bones.We always make ulunthu kali atleast twice a month but this kanji is new to me.But after tasting it I am going to make this as regular in our menu too as I loved it.

As a kid I never liked kali and kanji varieties and as a contrast I am so loving it.Blame it on ageing and ofcourse when you start cooking you are more health conscious I guess. The main reason being you feel more responsible for your family’s good health and look for more nutritious and healthy food.

This ulunthan kanji is

  • nutritious
  • tasty
  • healthy
  • boosts energy etc.

You can make this either for breakfast or lunch.Do try this healthy kanji and enjoy!

  • Cook and mash it well.It should be nicely mashed to a porridge consistency like this.Add water if needed.Add milk and coconut to it, mix well.Switch off.Adjust consistency according to your preference.

Notes

  • I used whole black urad dal but you can use split ones too.
  • You can use white urad dal also but the one with skin(black urad dal) has more health benefits packed.So I recommend using black urad dal either whole or split.
  • Add more milk or water according to the consistency you like your porridge.
  • You can even add coconut milk and skip coconut too.It gives nice flavour to the porridge.
  • It thickens with time so switch off accordingly.
