💡 How to Prepare / Use (Step-by-Step)
Prep: Barnyard Millet flakes are delicate. Do not soak them. Simply place the Aval in a wide strainer and rinse quickly under a gentle stream of water. Let it rest for 3–5 minutes—the moisture retained from rinsing is enough to soften these fine flakes.
Method: Heat a pan with cold-pressed coconut oil. Sauté mustard seeds, split urad dal, and finely chopped ginger. Add vegetables and cook until tender. Gently fluff the softened millet flakes into the pan. Cover and steam on the lowest heat setting for just 2 minutes.
Serve/Enjoy: Best enjoyed as a light Kuthiraivali Aval Upma or as a refreshing Curd Millet (Thayir Aval) seasoned with pomegranate seeds and coriander for a gut-soothing lunch.
