Instructions
  1. In a pressure cooker/ pan, add 1/4 tsp ghee and roast the moong dal.
  2. Add water, washed rice and salt. Pressure cook for 4 whistles. Mash it once done.

In the same pan, add cloves, elachi and switch off the stove. Add nutmeg powder, give a quick stir. Take out elachi and powder it, add the powdered elachi, edible camphor, cloves along with nutmeg powder to the pongal.
