  • 1 table spoon black peppercorns
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 bay leaf

 Method:

Soak the dal for 15 minutes and boil it in salted water until tender, and each grain is separate.  Put in a strainer to remove excess water and keep aside.  Fry the onion slices with bay leaf, cloves, cinnamon and cardamom until brown.  Add water, rice, salt, peppercorns, red chilly power and cumin seeds and cook on medium fire until tender and water is absorbed.  Fry the boiled dal in 30 grams ghee for a few minutes and mix it lightly with cooked rice.  Swerve hot.
