Measurements for Sakkarai Pongal

I have already blogged the receipe for sakkarai pongal. But it was not complete and i had not mentioned the proper measures.

Raw rice - 1 tumbler
Moong dal - Quarter tumbler
Channa Dal - 2 spoons

So when you combine the measure of all this (1 + 1/4 + 2 spoons = approx 1&1/2 tumbler)
you get one and half tumbler of dals and rice. You need to take the same amount of jaggery (one and half tumbler)

Also make sure that the rice and dal is cooked well before you add it into jaggery. This is because nothing will get cooked (boiled) in jaggery.

When you boil the rice and dal with water..instead of boiling them in water, you can cook them in half water - half milk.

You can also add grated coconut for enriching the taste.
