Ven Pongal is a traditional South Indian dish made with rice and lentils. It is a savory dish that is typically served for breakfast or lunch. To make Ven Pongal, you will need rice, moong dal (split yellow lentils), ghee (clarified butter), cumin seeds, black pepper, ginger, and cashews. The rice and lentils are cooked together until soft and then tempered with spices and cashews. Ven Pongal is usually served with coconut chutney and sambar, a lentil-based vegetable stew. It is a comforting and delicious dish that is perfect for a hearty meal.
