HAppy Ram NaVami to all my readers and friends.Ram navami is celebrated to mark the birth of lord Rama.We konkanies celebrate this along with some delicious food.
Today i have prepared a sweet dish called Pova(beaten rice ) kheer apart from other dishes like cucumber pachadi,Mooga dali usli,chana -potato sukkey,dalitoy,oodi(home made),papad(home made) kokum kadi,stuffed capsicum.
Ingredients:-
Poha/Beaten rice(thick)-1cup
Jaggery-2cups
Coconut-1(grated)
Cardamom powder-1/2tsp
Cashew nut,Raisin and almond for garnishing
Ghee 1tbsp for frying Poha
Method:-
- Grind coconut to smooth paste by adding 2 cups of water.Then extract the milk from the paste. Now you will get thick coconut milk.Again grind the coconut residue adding 2 cups of water and extract thin coconut milk.Once it is done mix both the milk and keep aside.
- Now fry the beaten rice over the low flame along with some cashew nut in thick bottom pan adding a tbsp of ghee.Fry till it changes to light brown color.
- In a heavy bottom sauce pan add 4 cups of water and put the jaggery and boil until it dissolves completely.Then add the fried poha and let it cook on slow flame.
- When the poha is almost cooked add coconut milk and bring to boil.
- The consistency should be little flowing because the beaten rice will absorb all the milk and will become thick if you have keep this for an hour or so.You aslo can add little warm milk to adjust the consistency later.
- Garnish with dry fruits and serve hot or chilled.
