Ingredients:

Semolina / Rava - 1 cup ( for 1 cup rava, take 2 1nd 1/2 cups of water)
Paasi Parupu / Moong Dhal - 1/2 cup
Pepper - 1 tsp
Cumin Seeds - 1 tsp
Cashews - few
Curry Leaves - few
Asafoetodia - 1/4 tsp
Turmeric Powder - 1/4 tsp
Finely Chopped Ginger - 1/4 tsp
Ghee - 3 tsp
Salt - to taste
Cooking Oil

Cooking Instructions:

Heat Ghee in a pan and roast the rava until it slightly changes in color and you get a nice aroma out of it and keep it aside.  Pressure cook the dhal for 4 whistles (or until it become mushy) with enough amount of water and 2 pinches of turmeric powder.

Add Cooking oil in a pan and saute it with pepper, cumin, ginger, cashews and curry leaves. Add 2 and 1/2 cups of water to it and bring it boil. When it starts to boil, add rava, 2 pinches of turmeric powder and salt to it and mix well. When the rava absorbs 3/4 of water, add cooked dhal to it and mix well. Let it cook until all the water has been absorbed by rava and dhal. Rava Pongal is ready to serve now!
