Recipe:

Soak equal portions of lentils and millets for 8hrs/overnight. For example- I took orange lentils/masoor daal, whole green moong, Udid/urad/white lentils and proso millets- 1/4 cup of each. You can mix-match anything.

After soaking, blend everything with salt, green chili per taste and lots of ginger. 

In that mixture add turmeric and mix well. 

Set aside for few minutes. 

Now add 1 teaspoon of fruit salt/baking soda/eno to the blended mixture. 

Grease a pan with little bit of oil. In this pan pour the mixture. 

In an empty wide pan add some water and place the pan with mixture. 

Cover it with lid and cook for 8-10 minutes. 

Once cooked let it cool down and garnish with tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves, grated coconut, chopped cilantro/coriander leaves and some pomegranate seeds. Enjoy!
