Ingredients

  • ½ cup rice
  • 2 cup water
  • ½ cup + ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup coconut milk first extracted thick milk
  • 10 nos garlic cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon fenugreek seeds
  • ½ teaspoon jeera
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse rice well. Add it to pressure cooker. Add garlic, fenugreek seeds.
  • Then add required salt. Add water and milk.
  • Add jeera. Pressure cook in medium flame for 6-8 whistles.
  • Let the pressure release by itself. Once pressure releases open,.
  • Mash it up well with a ladle. Add remaining ½ cup milk. Mix well.
  • Add coconut milk.
  • Add more milk if required to make it to porridge consistency.
  • Serve Garlic Milk Porridge hot / warm.

Notes

  • Rice choice – I have used raw rice as it turns mushy quickly, you can try with boiled rice if you like slightly grainy texture.
  • Consistency – It becomes thick when cooled down, so I usually add little extra milk or water before serving.
  • Coconut milk – I prefer adding thick coconut milk in the end, this keeps flavor fresh and avoid curdling.
  • Flavor balance – You can add pinch of pepper powder if you want more spice, I sometimes do this especially in winter.
  • Serving style – I usually mash it slightly after cooking, it gives smooth porridge texture and feels more comforting to eat.
