1 cup Rice

Method:

Pressure cook the rice and the green gram in milk.(in the exact same way as you would cook plain rice, milk being the replacement for water).In a non-stick pan, melt the jaggery. It should reach a bubbly sticking consistency. Mash the cooked rice and pour it in it, add the ghee and keep stirring. When it mixes well, let it simmer for 5-6 minutes.Add some more milk if it becomes more thick. Add cardamom to it. Roast cashews and raisins in ghee and add to the mixture. Mix well.
