Green Moong Kosambari
I was talking to my friend Ganga on phone inquiring about kannada recipes, thought she can help me in this as she is from Anantapur (border to Karnataka). Ganga makes lovely Jonna Rottis(jowar rotis). I tried to learn from her but can never make such soft, thin and very big sized jonna rottis. She then told me about this famous and easy recipe of Kosambari (Kannadiga Salad) which mainly has soaked green moong beans as the main ingredient with coconut, cucumber, tomatoes etc. Thanks Ganga for sharing this wonderful salad, JB loved it so much!

Cuisine: Karnataka, South Indian
Prep time: 5 mins
Soak time: 2-3 hrs
Makes: 2 people
Ingredients:
½ cup green moong beans (I used moong sprouts)
1 plum tomato, chopped
½ red onion, finely chopped 1 cucmber, chopped
2 green chilles, finely chopped
2 inch fresh coconut piece, grated
2 tsp lemon juice
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1 carrot, grated (I didn't have handy)
salt as per taste
Method:
- Soak the green moong beans for at least 2 hrs, here I used moong sprouts instead of the soaked ones.
- Mix all the veggies with moong beans, add lemon juice and salt as per your taste and a quick and healthy Kosambari is ready.
- A quick note, my friend also told that this can be offered as naivedyam to God, if you minus onions in it.

Rotti looks mouthwatering - slurp - for posts that contain more than one recipe, yours are always wonderfully organized. you are a wonderful cook i tell you - just look at the fabulous kosumbari
Mouthwatering dishes Padma...Perlu matram chaala kastamga vunnayi pronounce cheyataki :(...

Hey PAdma,
The thali looks really delicious! Toovar lilva beans we call "Togarikaalu" Avarekaalu is flatter and is called "Surti Lilva". But the togarikaalu usli looks very delicious! Will have to try that one!
Wow! What a wonderful trio of dishes! Yummy!

Lovely looking thali...everything looks wonderful in that plate...that rotti I am not even able to pronoun properly but you have prepared...jb is mightily lucky in you cooking such delicious meals
Thanks Padma for stopping by on my blog home. It's always a pleasure to hear from you :).
The Roti on your blog looks quite authentic and I have read it for the first time that we can make Roti's out of Rice flour. Excuse my ignorance!
But to be honest, I found the recipe quite interesting! Is it soft enough just like Wheat roti or is it crispy like Tandoori rotis that we can eat in restaurants?
I'll appreciate your response. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
Padma, the plate is lovely and authentic. Viji
That is alovely platter, loved the kosambari
That's such a lovely meal indeed :)
Hi padma

Lovely entry padma! Kosambri looks so yummy!:))
You have some of the best recipes!
Really beautiful pics of ukkarisida rotti. Looks awesome padma! great recipes. Bookmarking this recipe to try. Thanks for sharing dear.
Isn't this the same as rice roti, i mean the akki roti...? Keralites have a very thin and fluffy version of rice rotis called 'pathiri', which are very soft ones..
Shn
I love rotti, and can't wait to try your recipe. Question: can I use cumin powder in place of cumin seeds?
healthy dishes! and such lovely pics too.
ps: thanks a ton for taking time to go thru my personal blog as well :)
