Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 160g / 5.6ozRice
1/3 cup 78mlUrad dal
1/3 cup 78mlChana dal
1/3 cup 78mlYellow split peas
1 teaspoon 5mlSalt
1 teaspoon 5mlRed chile powder
1 teaspoon 5mlOnion - (opt) (large)
1   Carrot - (opt)
1/4 cup 23g / 0.8ozCoconut - grated (opt)

Recipe Instructions

Mix rice, chana dal, urad dal, and yellow split peas in a large vessel. Soak in a lot of water for about 2 hours.

Grind the soaked mixture with chile powder and salt coarsely, without adding much water.

Ferment for about 3 - 4 hours, then refrigerate or freeze. In cold weather, the fermenting process might take longer, and it might be a good idea to ferment in an oven (the pilot light will keep the mixture warm).

Add either onions (finely cut), carrot (grated) or coconut before preparing.

Freezing Notes: If freezing, only ferment for about an hour. The mixture will have to be left out for a while before being ready to use.
