Instructions

1
Cook rice and dal together in 4 cups water until both are soft and mushy, about 25 minutes.
2
In a separate pan, cook potato, beans, carrot, and peas in water until tender, 8 minutes. Add tomato.
3
Add cooked vegetables to the rice-dal mixture. Add bisi bele bath powder and tamarind paste.
4
Add water to reach a porridge-like consistency. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5
Heat ghee in a small pan. Add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and curry leaves. When they splutter, pour over the rice.
6
Add roasted peanuts and mix well. Adjust salt and spice.
7
Serve hot with a dollop of ghee on top and papad on the side. This is a Karnataka one-pot classic.
