Kambu is one of the best great alternative for rice. I strongly suggest you to skip rice at least 2 - 3 times  a week. It is really a health alternative. On summer days first day you eat kambu rice and remaining you can make a balls and put in water, next morning you can mix th
at balls with buttermilk and make kambu koozh.  It cools your body naturally.

Enjoy this perfect cooked kambu rice with any of your favorite curry. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
