Ingredients for Kambu Sadam
- Pearl Millet / Kambu / Bajra - 1 cup
- Water - 3 cup
- Salt to taste
Kambu makes a great alternative for rice. I strongly suggest you to skip rice atleast once or twice a week and include any millet in your diet. It is really a health alternative. Specially during summer days kambu koozh is best because it just cools your body naturally.
How to Make Kambu Sadam
- Take pearl millet in a bowl, add in ¼ cup of water, rub well. leave it for 5 mins.
- Now take this in a blender and make it like a rava consistency or crush it lightly.
- Take this in a blender and add in water. Cover and Pressure cook for 4 whistle.
- Simmer the flame and cook for 5 mins. Turn off the heat and let the steam escape all by itself.
- Open the cooker, add in salt and mix well.
- Transfer the mix to a big plate, cool it lightly.
- Dip your hands in water and shape the mix into balls.
- Set aside and serve with any spicy kuzhambu.
