Today I am posting recipe for Brown /Black channa pulao.I frequently prepare channa kuzhambu since its Sri's favorite lentil, he likes this brown channa very much. I felt bit bored of preparing this kuzhambu. Whichever form we give brown channa sri likes it , but I felt like having something different other than kuzhambu so searched for a recipe in google, I took guidance from sharmi's passion and prepared Channa Pulao and it is a big hit :) Whoo..hoo.. :D I packed this pulao for his lunch, got a message from him during lunch, saying that it is really good and it is not enough to fill his tummy. I cooked this pulao using coconut milk, it was soo rich to taste and I accompanied this with cucumber carrot raita. Give it a try , you will definitely like it.
Coconut Rice is one of the south indian traditional rice recipe. A very simple recipe yet a very tasty and delicious dish, also making use of freshly grated coconut makes the dish flavorful. In my mom's place we have coconut trees and always have minimum 10 to 20 coconuts in home and so it is not a big deal to prepare dishes with coconut. My mom often prepares coconut rice, mostly with afternoon's leftover rice for dinner and it is one of my favorite dish . Here in sweden we are rarely getting fresh coconut :( and not able to make chutney's and coconut related dishes often. But for past few weeks we are getting plenty of coconuts in stores that too for offer price :).Now I am happily preparing dishes with coconut. And so today posting recipe for my favorite dish Coconut Rice.

Whenever I think of Arisi Paruppu Sadam the first thing which comes to my mind is, getting up early in the morning, preparing dishes for whole family, packing in a banana leaf covered with news paper or packing in boxes & carrying plastic plates, I am sure most of us where seen this while our mother's busy doing this and ourselves getting ready with full expectation about summer vacation / Outing / Picnic / Family trip. Whole day playing with friends/Cousins and with full hunger having those dishes hmm ...tastes like heaven.
