Best of The Best

                                                       I am sure this will be an item familiar to all Tamilians. This kanji is an excellent home remedy for ulcer in the mouth,tongue or stomach.The healing effect of coconut and fenugreek does the wonder. All of us one day or the other will  be suffering from the mouth ulcer and find this kanji very useful..For the bachelors who have food outside the whole week can have this on the week end to soothe the stomach. Paruppu thuvayal  or Vendakkai pachadi will be an excellent combination.

Raw rice or Rice that you cook -1/2 cup

Garlic pods-10

Fenugreek seed -1 ½ teaspoon

Coconut milk –milk taken from a small coconut  or ½ cup thick tinned coconut milk

Pressure cook the rice along with the garlic pods and fenugreek seeds adding  quarter cup coconut milk and 2 cups water.In slow flame cook the rice for 12 minutes.Open the cooker and smash the rice with a ladle adding little salt.remember this kanji does not need much salt. Now add nearly 2 cups of coconut milk.Add water to the tinned milk to make it two cups if tinned coconut milk is used. Serve immediately as the porridge will become thick once it cools .If you are going to use it later and find it very thick little more coconut milk or warm water can be used.
