Milk Rice
Milk 9-10 cups Rice 1 cup salt 1/2 tsp
Boil milk in a heavy bronze vessel. When it starts boiling reduce flame and add washed rice. (Do not soak). Keep stirring constantly in medium flame till rice is cooked soft. (Keep one or two cups of hot milk separately).
If the pongal thicknes before the rice becomes soft, add hot milk and continue cooking. When the pongal is thick enough remove from fire and add powdered salt. Mix well and serve hot with coriander chutney and sambar. If rice is very cold increase volume of milk. One litre milk can be diluted with 3 cups of water.
