Ven Pongal is a very easy and comfort food and it is one of the most famous breakfast in South India. Even it is cooked at temples to offer to god and even during several puja/festival specially in Pongal festival it will be cooked in each and every house along with few more different varieties of rice dishes. If your not in mood to cook something spicy or heavy food then this is the best option to cook, because it is very lite on stomach and does not take time at all. But tastes simply awesome along with some coconut chutney..

1 cup rice
1/4cup split moong dal
4 cups water
Ping of hing
Salt to taste.

1tsp cumin
1/2tsp black pepper
2 green chillies (finely chopped)
