About Pasi paruppu kanji
Pasi Paruppu Kanji is a comforting porridge from South Indian cuisine, made primarily with moong dal (split yellow lentils), rice, and spices. This traditional dish is often enjoyed for its nourishing and restorative qualities, especially during recovery from illness or as a light meal. Moong dal forms the protein-rich base, while rice provides energy through healthy carbohydrates. The porridge is typically seasoned with ingredients like garlic, cumin, and turmeric, lending antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. Coconut milk or ghee may be added for richness, though these can increase calorie content. Low in fat and easy on the stomach, Pasi Paruppu Kanji is also high in fiber, supporting digestion and satiety. The dish is often served warm, making it a wholesome option to boost hydration and provide gentle nutrition. Simple yet flavorful, it exemplifies the healing traditions of Indian home cooking.
