Step 1) Dry roast rice and dal over medium heat for a couple of minutes. Dal should not change its color. Once you feel the nice aroma of the dal turn off the heat and rinse it in water for a couple of times.
Step 2) Heat oil in a cooker and add ginger (finely chopped) and green chilies. Give it a stir and then add sliced onion and the veggies - Carrot, beans, peas. Cook for a minute and then add the rice and dal also add in some ghee and mix well.
Step 3) For (1 cup rice + 1/2 cup dal ) we will need 5 cups of water. Also add required salt, Cover and let it cook for 4 whistles on a medium heat.
We need to cook the rice until turns soft and mushy, that is the reason we are adding more water.
Step 4) Melt ghee in a pan and roast cashews, once the cashews turns golden add pepper corns (if you dont like to add whole pepper, crush it and add to the recipe) Also add in cumin seeds, pinch of asafoetida and curry leaves. Mix it once and turn off the heat.
Add the tempering to the pongal and mix well. If you wish you can add more ghee at the end to get nice aroma and taste.
