Kambu Kali And Khool (kugan)

Today my topic is kambu.
This again brings back thoughts of my dear Suvai.
She was asking me all the recipes for kambu.

First you have to clean the kambu of its skin.
You can get cleaned kambu in the shops.
Then grind coarsely the kambu in your blender.


Now the kambu Kali and kool

Ingredients:
1 cup coarsely ground kambu.
4 cups of water
little salt.

Method:
Take 2 cups of water and mix the kambu and keep aside.
Boil the other 2 cups of water in a deep pot.

When the water boils, add the mixed kambu little by little,
and keep on stirring. Make the flame very low.
keep on strring until the kambu kali is cooked.
It will not stick to your finger when you touch it.

Remove and let it cool.

you can add any kulambu and eat it as kali.
or you can cut one small onion, little green chillie,
little curry leaves, add enough mooru, salt and mix
it into kool.
A very refreshing and filling drink.

The remainder kali can be made into a ball and
put in a container of water, to be used the next day.

Later I will post how to make dosai and idli with the kambu.
