This year I wanted to try karuppati / Karuppatti Pongal for naivedyam. I have tasted this at my mum’s place I loved the flavour of it. Karuppati gives a unique flavour to pongal. I have added an additional 2 tablespoons of karuppati sugar than what my mum told me as I felt it is not sweet enough. You can adjust the karuppati measurement based on your preferred sweetness. I started using karuppati in my coffee (black coffee) about 2 years ago. From that time my hemoglobin level is well maintained so I always look for an opportunity to use palm jaggery / karuppati
Ingredients:
Rice – 1 cup
split yellow moong dal – 1/4 cup
karuppatti / karupati – 1 cup + 2 tablespoon
cardamom – 1/4 teaspoon
ghee – 3 tablespoon
