SWEET PONGAL COOKING METHOD:

*  Fry the moong dhal (before washing) till it becomes little light brown (it

      will start smelling). Then soak rice and dhal separately for 10 minutes.

*   Thoroghly wash and keep it in cooker with the right water (lesser is o.k)and

     cook it seperately (in two different containers). Meanwhile cut coconut in

     very small pieces and fry in ghee. 

*   Fry cashew and raisins also separately. Break the jagerry and put in water

      (very little) and make a syrup. This is done because sometimes jagerry has mud

       and stones. 

*   After we make the syrup strain it through tea strainer. Put the rice and dhal in a

     big vessel and add milk (may be one cup) and cook it till all the milk get

    spoons of ghee, powdered cardamon and cook again for a while. Add fried

     coconut, cashews and raisins.

*  Serve hot in two cups with a spoon of ghee.
