| Ulundu Kali (Black Gram Porridge) |
A mildly-sweet
thick porridge that just slides down your throat, leaving a warm and comforting
feeling. This is a traditional recipe from rural Tamil Nadu, and is believed to
strength the bones.It is given regularly to young girls and pregnant women as they
require a good dose of iron and protein, but it is also good for everyone else
so the whole family enjoys it. While this recipe can be made as a loose
porridge or as a thick one, kali traditionally means a thick porridge of an
halwa-like consistency, so it is best made like that. Despite the intense taste
and rich aroma of this porridge, it uses very little oil and no coconut. It is
good to have as a snacks any time of the day, and a wonderful way to harness
the protein and iron in urad dal.
