Method
Cooking
of Kuthiravali Arisi
Wash
the kuthiravali arisi/Barynyard millet with clean water 2-3 times and drain the
water. Soak the kuthiravali arisi/Barnyard Millet in water for 5 minutes.
If you
are going to pressure cook then for 1 cup of rice add 2 cups of water and cook
for 3 whistles along with salt.
If you
are going to cook in open pan then for 1 cup of rice add 4 cups of water and
cook.
I
cooked the kuthiravali arisi/barnyard millet in pressure cooker.
After
the steam releases, mix it well with ladle. Add 1 cup of water and mix
thoroughly.
Now add
yogurt, milk and mix really well without any lumps. Check the salt at this
point and adjust accordingly. Cover and keep it aside.
Heat
oil in a kadai, crackle the mustard seeds, add cumin seeds,dry red chillies,
Bengal gram dal, urad dal and cashew nuts. Wait until the dal starts to turn
colour, now add the green chillies, ginger, raisins, asafetida, curry leaves
and sauté for 15 -20 sec on low flame. Switch off the stove.
Finally
garnish it with grated carrots and chopped cilantro/kothamalli.
Suggestions:
Add
more milk if needed to adjust the consistency.
I have
soaked the rice for 5-7 minutes so the ratio for cooking is Kuthiravali :Water
is 1:2 .
If you don’t have time to soak the rice or if you forget to soak it
then increase the amount of water to 3 cups.
Yes,
delicious, healthy and tasty Kuthiravali Thayir/Curd Sadham is ready to be
enjoyed.
Serve with potato masala or yam fry or with just pickle of your
choice.
