Instructions
roasting rava
- Heat a pan or kadai first. Add the 1/2 cup rava or cream of wheat (fine variety).
- Begin to roast the rava. Stir often while roasting the rava. The rava or sooji grains should become fragrant and start to look dry, separate and crisp. Don’t brown the rava.
- Roasting takes about 5 to 6 minutes on a low flame. Then switch off the flame. Once the rava becomes fragrant and starts to look dry and crisp, then switch off the flame and add the roasted rava in a plate and keep aside.
frying cashews
- In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon ghee or oil. Add 10 to 12 cashews.
- Stirring them often on a low to medium flame fry till they get golden. Keep aside.
making khara bath
- Lower the flame and in the same pan, add 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds, 1/2 teaspoon chana dal and 1/2 teaspoon urad dal.
- On a low flame saute the lentils and mustard seeds, till the chana dal and urad dal gets golden. The mustard seeds will also crackle by then.
- Next add 3 tablespoons finely chopped onions. On a low flame, saute for a minute.
- Then add 3 tablespoons finely chopped capsicum, 3 tablespoons finely chopped carrot, 3 tablespoons finely chopped tomatoes and 2 tablespoons green peas.
- Mix very well and add 7 to 8 curry leaves.
- Season with 1/2 teaspoon sugar and salt as required.
- Then add 1 teaspoon vangi bhaat masala. Mix very well.
- Now add 1.5 cups water. Mix very well.
- Bring the water to boil at medium flame.
- When the water comes to a boil, reduce the flame to a low. Then add the roasted rava in two to three batches.
- As soon as you add first batch, stir very well. So that lumps are not formed.
- This way add in batches. Stir very well after adding each batch.
- Cover pan with a lid and cook on a low flame for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Open the lid and then add 2 tablespoons ghee.
- Also add 2 to 3 tablespoon chopped coriander leaves.
- Mix very well, so that the ghee is mixed evenly with the khara bath.
- Lastly add the fried cashews. Mix again.
- Serve khara bath with some slices of lemon and coconut chutney.

- You can add 2 teaspoons vangi bhath masala powder also.
