Healthy Kambag Koozhu

Ingredients

  • Millet (Kambag)
  • Water
  • Sun-dried curd chillies

Instructions

Kambag Koozhu is a traditional South Indian breakfast porridge made from millet, a staple grain cultivated in agricultural lands. This nutritious dish is prepared by processing millet over three days to ensure the flavors and health benefits are fully extracted.

To begin, soak the millet in water for several hours. After soaking, drain the water and let it ferment slightly in a warm place for a day. This fermentation process enhances the nutritional profile of the millet. The next step involves grinding the soaked millet with adequate water to achieve a smooth, porridge-like consistency.

Once the porridge is prepared, transfer it to a pot and cook over low to medium heat, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Once it thickens to your desired consistency, remove it from the heat.

For serving, pair your Kambag Koozhu with sun-dried curd chillies for an added burst of flavor. This combination not only elevates the taste but also brings a wonderful health aspect to your meal.

Enjoy your delicious and healthy Kambag Koozhu, a reminder of traditional Indian cuisine that celebrates wholesome ingredients and simple, nourishing meals!
