Payaru Kanji is a kind of rice porridge which is made in different parts of tamil nadu and kerala in different ways. This particular type of kaji is usually made in south tamil nadu and is had with coconut thuvayal. It is generally had after a long fasting period, as a simple dinner or breakfast or even during cold as a comfort food. Ingredients Rice - 1 cup Green Gram - 3/4 cup Fenugreek Seeds - 1 tsp Garlic - 1 clove (Chopped) Pearl Onions - 3-4 (chopped) Fresh Grated Coconut - 1-2 tblsp Salt - as needed Water - a lot (app. 6-8 cups) Oil - 1 tsp  Method 1. Take a deep pan, add the oil to it and fry the fenugreek seeds. 2. Next add the chopped garlic clove and pearl onions and fry for another 30 seconds. This step is absolutely optional. 3. Add the water and bring it to a boil. The fenugreek flavour is infused in the water. 4. When the water boils add the rice and green gram. 5. Cover and let it cook till both rice and gram are cooked. If you feel you need more water, you can add some hot water to bring to the desired consistency. 6. Finally add the required salt and grated coconut. Serve as a simple breakfast or dinner.
Variations - You could also try different kanjis by substituting whole urad dal or red chori (red beans) instead of green gram. - Another variation is to substitute rice with oats and you have a healthy oats kanji. Comments Comment by poojitha sai it is so nice Reply :- Thank you.
