Akkaravadisal recipe - A traditional iyengar recipe of milk sweet pongal where the rice and dal is cooked entirely in milk and generous amount of ghee and sweetener.

Its worth it, I tell you.

Its simple to make, almost like the regular Sakkarai Pongal (Sweet Pongal).

The only difference, albeit very minute, is the amount of milk.

Traditionally in temples they cook akkaravadisal in a bronze pot the one we use for making sweet pongal…Though it takes time the taste is just awesome…If you have bronze pot and time in hand then you can try with that :).
