Course : Curry
From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 6
 

Ingredients:

1 cup rice
1/3 cup urad dal
1/3 cup chana dal
1/3 cup yellow split peas
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon red chile powder
1 large onion -- (opt)
1 medium carrot -- (opt)
1/4 cup coconut -- grated (opt)
 

Preparation:

Mix rice, chana dal, urad dal, and yellow split peas in a large vessel. Soak in a lot of water for about 2 hours. Grind the soaked mixture with chile powder and salt coarsely, without adding much water. Ferment for about 3 - 4 hours, then refrigerate or freeze. In cold weather, the fermenting process might take longer, and it might be a good idea to ferment in an oven (the pilot light will keep the mixture warm). Add either onions (finely cut), carrot (grated) or coconut before preparing. Freezing Notes: If freezing, only ferment for about an hour. The mixture will have to be left out for a while before being ready to use. Rajeev Krishnamoorthy
