Corn Wheat Porridge / CornMeal Wheat Gruel is a filling and healthy porridge.
- 1/2 Cup CornMeal / Corn Rava / Scrambled Corn
- 1/2 Cuo Broken Wheat / Wheat Rava
- 1/3 Cup Split Green Gram / Moong Dal
- Required Salt
- 4 Cups Water
- 1 Tablespoon Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Cumin Seeds
- 1 Big Onion
- Fistful Curry Leaves
- 1 Green Chillis
-
Wash and clean the ingredients. Add Wheat, Corn and Moong dal into a pressure cooker. Add Water and salt to taste. Cook in medium flame for 4 whistles. Switch off the flame and allow pressure to release on its own.
-
Open the Pressure Cooker. If required add more water and heat it again. Heat oil in another pan. Add in jeera and allow it to splutter. Add in chopped onion.
-
Saute the onion until glossy. Add in the curry leaves and green chillis and saute them.
-
Add in the tampered mixture into the Porridge. Mix them gently.
-
Delicious and creamy porridge is now ready to serve.
- The tampering is the key step that brings in taste to the porridge so do not omit it.
- If you wish to add garlic then they can also be added while pressure cooking.
- While reheating do not add more water and make the porridge. Since we are going to add the tampering mixture a semi solid consistency would taste great.
- If the porridge gets watery heat it for few mins until the water disappears.
- Corn meal can be replaced by regular sooji as well.
- I have used groundnut oil for tampering.
