Ulunthu Kanchi / Urad dal Porridge

Ulunthu Kanchi / Urad Dal Porridge Recipe by Lax Kitchen
Ulunthu kanchi is very good recipe for our health. My mom used to make this recipe once or twice a month. She always prepares it on sunday morning. I like to have a spicy sidedish with this kanchi. My mom makes vengaya milagai as a side dish which i love the most. Any pickle or thogaiyal would also be a perfect side dish for this kanchi.

Today i am making this kanchi using black gram(urad dal) without skin. But you can also make this kanchi with black gram(with skin) which is more healthier.

Lax Notes
* Consistency of kanchi/porridge is your choice. Add more water or milk as per your need.
* Some people used to add grated coconut. If you want, add it just before removing the kanchi/porridge from flame.
