CHETTINAD KALKANDU SADAM RECIPE

Ingredients

• 1 cup raw rice 
• 1 cup milk
• Cup for Kalkandu
• Cardamom-4
• a pinch of kumkumapoo (saffron)
• 3 tablespoons ghee
• ten cashew nuts
• a few dry grapes

Procedure

Cook the rice in a crockpot or rice cooker with 1 cup of milk and 2 cups of water until it is crushed well. When the rice is cooked, smash it with a spoon while it is still hot. Keep the rice on the fire while you add the powdered kalkandu and cardamom. The addition of Kalkandu will make the rice wet. When the rice cools, it thickens. Cook for additional 5 minutes if you think it’s too watery. Incorporate the saffron-milk mixture into the rice. Fry the cashews and grapes in the ghee, then combine with the rice.
