- Take quarter cup each of rice and split moong dal and soak it in water for one hour. After soaking, drain the water. Add in a cup of milk and a cup of water to the rice-dal mixture. Set aside. Cook the mixture in a pressure cooker. Cook for a good 15 minutes on medium flame. Remove off heat and allow the pressure to settle naturally. Set aside. Take a pan and add in the cooked dal-rice mixture. Take the kalkandu(sugar) and grind it coarsely to a powder and add it to the pan. Keep stirring for couple of minutes. Take a pan and add in the ghee, cashewnut and raisin and fry till the nuts are brown. Add in the cardamom and the fried nut mixture. Switch off the flame and let it cool down for 20 minutes.
