Thanks a lot to Shanthi madam , for the recipe ...It came out so well and we are enjoying it ..made this as prasadam for Vaikunta Ekadasi / Koodaraivalli.

Ingredients needed :

• Raw Rice - 2 cups
• Moong dhal - 1/4 cup
• Jaggery - 1/4 cup
• Sugar - 1/4 cup
• Water - 1/2 cup
• Milk - 1 ltr.
• Ghee
• Elachi powder
• Cashews
• Raisins

Method :

Wash and drain rice and dhal. Heat a kadai , and fry the rice and dhal till it turns slight yellow in colour. In a presure cooker add little ghee and add the fried rice and dhal and add 1/2 ltr. milk and presure cook it for 4 whistles. In a kadai , add ghee and fry the cashews and raisins and keep it aside ... now add jaggery and sugar and add water and allow it to dissolve well. Once the presure is released , mash the rice and dhal well , add the jaggery and sugar water and add remaining milk + fried cashews and raisins and allow it to cook for few mins ..

This should be semi solid , you can add more milk to get the consistency ...
