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.
