Ulundu Paruppu Sadham

I got this recipe from my best buddy Deepthi's, mother. When we were in hostel during our undergrad, her mom used to prepare this and bring it whenever she comes to visit Deepthi. The entire wing would crowd in our room. We all used to savor this dish and scrape the container till the last bit.

Ingredients
Sadham :
1 cup rice
1/3 urad dhal (black whole)
salt + little grated coconut
little bit of vendayam

Chutney:
red chilli - 2
coriander seeds- 2 tbsp
Tamrind,
grated coconut

Method:
1. Wash rice and black whole urad well. Add enough quantity of water. And some grated coconut, vendayam and pressure cook the same.
2. When it is cooked add salt and mix well
3. For chutney, dry roast red chilli, corriander seeds. Add coconut and a little bit of tamarind paste, salt and grind together.

Her mom used to tell us that the dish is to be eaten by mixing the chutney well with the rice and not by having the chutney as a side dish. ( Nalla pesanju sapdanum, chutney chumma thottu sapda koodadu !).
