    Corn Wheat Porridge / CornMeal Wheat Gruel

    March 17, 2017 By Anlet Prince 3 Comments

    Corn Wheat Porridge / CornMeal Wheat Gruel is a Healthy and filling option for breakfast or even dinner. It keeps us full and energetic for the whole day. This is a comforting dish. Corn meal has a creamy texture that gives a creamy taste to the porridge. It is considered to be a meal by itself. So this porridge can even substitute a meal during a fast. Keeps hunger pangs at bay. What I like about it is that it’s so filling and very energising making it ideal for a pick me up in the breakfast. I served with porridge with Palak Pakoda

    Corn Wheat Porridge / CornMeal Wheat Gruel is a filling and healthy porridge.
    Prep Time10 minutes mins
    Cook Time30 minutes mins
    Total Time40 minutes mins
    Course: Breakfast
    Cuisine: Indian

    Ingredients

    • ½ Cup CornMeal / Corn Rava / Scrambled Corn
    • ½ Cuo Broken Wheat / Wheat Rava
    • ⅓ Cup Split Green Gram / Moong Dal
    • Required Salt
    • 4 Cups Water

    For Tampering

    • 1 Tablespoon Oil
    • 1 Tablespoon Cumin Seeds
    • 1 Big Onion
    • Fistful Curry Leaves
    • 1 Green Chillis

    Instructions

    • 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.

    Notes

    • 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.
