Today I have come up with my mom\u2019s version of making ven pongal. My parents are with me in Bangalore and I am having a great time with them. I am enjoying my mom\u2019s special recipes. This morning amma made ven pongal and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chitrasfoodbook.com\/2009\/10\/hotel-white-red-chutney.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"color: blue;\">coconut chutney<\/span><\/strong><\/a> for our breakfast.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\" trbidi=\"on\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\" trbidi=\"on\">Most of us avoid eating pepper corns if its added as whole ones. So my mom adds coarsely powdered pepper corns just like the ones served in some hotels. And she adds more quantity of moong dal to make the dish more healthy. It doesn&#8217;t look like hotel style ghee dripping pongal but sure its tasty. Do try this version. You will love it.
