We use to call this recipe as “bajji chaar “ in our language. This is a best dish that can be served with hot rice. You can mix this bajji saar in hot rice as you do with kolambu and rasam. For this recipe, you need water that we have washed rice. In Tamil, “ it is arisi kaluviya thannir”. We all use to cook rice daily. Wash that rice with 1 cup of water well and drain it. Now wash the rice with 2 cups of drinking water and instead of draining the water in the basin, take that water in a bowl. So you need this rice water to cook bajji chaar.
