Ramzaan Nombu Kanji – Vegetarian Version

Ramzaan Nombu Kanji – Vegetarian Version





Ramadan Kanji:

Though personally I never appreciate the meatless version of Nombu Kanji, this was prepared for my relatives…who overwhelmingly asked me for a vegetarian version. I am glad that they liked it. So, here you go…

Ingredients:

Basmati rice 1/2 cup
Mung dal 1/4 cup
Fenugreek seeds 2 spoons
Green chilies 6 sliced
Onion 1 sliced
Ginger-garlic paste 1 spoon
Tomato 1 chopped
Mint leaves few
Cilantro leaves few
Salt
Cloves 3
Cinnamon 1 stick
Cardamom 3 crushed
Bay leaves 2
Ghee few spoons.

Method:

In a pressure cooker, heat ghee. Add the whole spices followed by chilies, wait till they crackle.

Add onions and ginger-garlic paste…fry till the raw odor leaves the pan.

Further add tomatoes, mint and cilantro leaves.

Add rice, lentil and fenugreek seeds. Add 2-4 cups of water plus salt, cover and cook till tender.

Serve warm as a hearty soup.
