ABOUT Kamban Koozhu | Bajra Porridge RECIPE

I love monsoon season and being in Tamil Nadu, we have enjoyed aadi masam/ monsoon month's koozhu varieties a lot.

Ingredients Serving: 4

Bajra flour - 1/2 cup
Cooked rice - 1/2 cup ( optional)
Water - 2 cups ( approx)
Butter Milk as needed
Green chillies - 2-3 ( optional)
Onions - 1/4 cup ( chopped finely)
Raw Mango - 1/4 cup ( chopped)

Instructions

Dilute Bajra flour in two cups of water without any lumps.
Leave it aside for 1-2 hours. Meanwhile grind cooked rice with little water, just pulse it twice or thrice we don't want to grind the rice into paste .
Now in a sauce pan boil the diluted Bajra , add coarsely ground rice and cook them till it thickens a bit. After it thickens, turn off the flame and add butter milk to it.
Mix them well and keep them in a mud pot or steel pot.
You enjoy this porridge at room temperature or cool.
Koozhu tends to thicken as time goes so add enough liquid .
Serve them topped with some chopped onions and raw mango.
