This is similar to kambu koozh.

Come let’s check out how to open cook pearl millet. I am adding the procedure for pressure cooking under notes. I would always recommend open cooking for rice and millets. Open cooking is said to be the nutritious method when it comes to cooking rice and millets.
Kambu Sadam Recipe
Ingredients:
- Pearl Millet/Kambu-1/2 cup
- Water-3 cups
Procedure:
1.Measure and keep the ingredients ready.
2.Wash well and soak the pearl millet overnight or for 4-6 hours.
3.In the morning, or after the soaking time, rinse once. Completely drain the water
4.In an open pot add the water and allow to boil in medium flame.
5.When it boils carefully add the pearl millet/kambu.
6.Let the pearl millet get cooked in low flame for 15-18 minutes.
7.Occasionally stir it.
- Check for doneness around 15 minutes. If it is soft like rice, you can stop cooking and drain the excess water.
- Don’t discard this water. You can use it for making vegetable soup.
10.The Kambu sadam is ready. You can have with salt & buttermilk or curd or tamarind gravy.
Notes:
To pressure cook, add two cups of water and cook for 5 whistles.
You may cook all the millets in the same way. Just keep checking for doneness and don’t let it get mushy.
