Description

A flavorful and healthy twist on the classic Bisi Bele Bath, made with protein-rich kodo millet, lentils, and a fragrant spice blend.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a pressure cooker or pot. Add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, asafoetida, turmeric powder, and curry leaves. Splutter the mustard seeds.
  2. Add the chopped onion and saute until translucent.
  3. Add the mixed vegetables and cook for a few minutes.
  4. Add water, rinsed kodo millet, soaked toor dal, Bisi Bele Bath powder, tamarind pulp, red chilli powder, jaggery (if using), and salt. Stir well.
  5. Close the pressure cooker and cook for 3-4 whistles on medium heat. Alternatively, cook in a pot until the millet and dal are tender.
  6. Once cooked, let the pressure release naturally. Open the cooker and mash the dal slightly for a thicker consistency.
  7. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with raita of your choice.

Note

You can adjust the amount of vegetables and Bisi Bele Bath powder according to your preference. For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of ghee while tempering. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
