Ulundu sadam recipe a Nelai / Tirunelveli special dish made with black urad dal and rice.
Ulundu sadam recipe with step by step pictures and video. This is one of nellai special dish made with black urad dal and rice.
I was first introduced to this rice from my friend Aarthi. She often makes this rice with thogayal for lunch and whenever I heat this I wanted to try it. This is popularly called as Ulunudu soru. This combo of ulundu sadam with thogayal is one of the most comforting and healthy one that I always wanted to try. Black urad dal is very good for stengthening bones so I always make Kali atleast twice a month. This rice is very good for young girls who attain puberty
This combo is the best so don’t skip thogayal while making this rice. This rice is meant to be slightly mushy not grain seperated so water should to be added accordingly as she had mentioned. Also surprisingly idli rice is used for making of this rice not our regular ponni rice. The taste of rice dal combo with the tempering, a hint of sweetness and flavour from palm jaggery tastes best. I loved it so much and am sure to include this often.
About Ulundu Sadam Recipe:
This is one of the quickest and easiest one pot meal. To begin with first roast urad dal for few mins, set aside to cool then rinse along with rice and keep it ready. Heat oil in a pressure cooker – add the tempering items, let it splutter then add rice, dal and required water along with salt. Presusre cook for 3-4 whistles, let pressure release by itself. Then open, fluff and serve hot!
Variations:
- You can add ginger while tempering.
- Adding palm jaggery is optional but I would recommend adding it.
- You can use ponni rice instead of idli rice too.
- The ratio I used here is 1(rice):1(urad dal) but you can use 2:1 also.
- I used aplit urad dal but you can use whole black urad dal too.
