Servings4
Ingredients
- 1 cup pearl millet I used broken kambu
- 3.5 cups water
- 3 cups buttermilk
- salt to taste
For sidedishes:
- raw onion
- green chillies
- pickle
- vadam
- molaga vathal
Instructions
- Rinse the kambu well and transfer to pressure cooker and add water and pressure cook in low medium flame for 3-4 whistles in low medium flame.
- Once pressure releases, open and switch on the flame.
- Keep stirring till it becomes thick enough to roll into a ball. Let it cool down for few mins, then roll them into balls.
- Place the kambu balls in a bowl containing water till immersing level. Let it rest for an hour (you can leave it overnight in the fridge too), you can refrigerate it.
- Then mix it well. I used my whisk for this. Mix well without any lumps.
- Then add buttermilk, required salt and give a quick stir.
- Serve Kambu Koozh with raw onion or vadams or pickle of your choice.
Notes
- If you have whole kambu, then sprinkle little water over it and leave it for 15 mins then grind it in a mixer to make it coarse...just 2-3 pulse is enough
