Instructions
Preparing the Chana Dal
In a kadhai, over medium flame, dry roast the chana dal till it starts to brown.
Soak the roasted chana dal in 1 cup water for 30 minutes.
Pressure cook the chana dal for 2-3 whistles, till it is just cooked.
Do not overcook the dal or it will become pulpy.
Let the dal cool a bit.
Using a heavy ladle, mash the dal a bit.
We just want to breakup the dal and not make it a pulp.
Let some dal retain its shape.
Set aside.
Making the Jaggery Syrup
In a heavy bottomed vessel, add 1/3 cup water and the jaggery.
Over medium heat, melt the jaggery.
Putting It All Together
Add the mashed dal to the jaggery syrup. Mix well.
Over medium flame, cook for 5 minutes till the mix starts to simmer.
Lower the heat.
Add the coconut milk and mix well.
Over low to medium flame, let the payasam simmer for 5 minutes.
Turn off the heat.
Add the edible camphor and mix well.
Cover and set aside.
The Garnish
In a ladle, heat the ghee
Add the cashews and coconut pieces.
Stir-fry till the pieces just start to turn brown.
Add the cashews and coconut to the Senaga Pappu Payasam | Kadala Parippu Payasam.
Mix well.
Offer as naivedyam and enjoy as prasadam. :)
