Notes

  1. Can skip adding coconut as we are adding coconut milk.
  2. Depending upon your need you can make the kanji thick or thin.
  3. Pinch of salt always enhances the taste but adding it is optional.
  4. I have used clean organic powdered jaggery so I did not do the process of diluting and filtering.
  5. Use black urad dal for maximum health benefits.
  6. Adding rice gives body to the dish and additional taste to this porridge.
