Green Gram Porridge

To make green gram porridge in a pressure cooker, combine 1 cup of rice, 0.5 cup of green gram, and 1 tbsp of fenugreek seeds in the cooker. Add enough water to cover the ingredients and cook until done. After cooking, stir in salt and 0.25 cup of thick coconut milk, then bring it to a boil before serving.

If you need a substitute for coconut milk in green gram porridge, you can use almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based milk. For a creamier texture, consider using cashew cream or a mixture of water and a little bit of nut butter.

To store leftover green gram porridge, let it cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. When reheating, you may need to add a little water or milk to restore its creamy consistency.
