Recipes / pongal festival

These chickpeas are often served as part of the menu during Indian festivals such as Pongal and New Year, where it goes very well with the Sweet Pongal Rice.  

An important part of the celebration of Pongal - the Tamil harvest/thanksgiving festival, is the boiling of milk and the new rice of the harvest season.  This recipe shows how  a vegan version of this sweet rice may be prepared at home.
