Bisi Bele Bath #BBB is a popular Karnataka  rice recipe. ‘Bisi’ means ‘piping hot’ in Kannada and ‘Bele’ means lentil. I was so lucky to taste the authentic Bisi bele bath in a traditional Kannadiga marriage function in Mysore two decades ago. Every household has their own recipe of making this super tasty rice and lentil dish. Adding vegetables is totally up to your liking. I like to add just onions. The steaming  ‘bisi bele’, the flowing consistency of the rice dish and the aroma of freshly ground cinnamon along with other spices made me fall in love with it instantly. This is a Super hit recipe at home and I am sure your family and friends are simply going to love it. You are sure to get loads of compliments. Do try and share your feedback.
1 cup = 250 ml cup
Ingredients :
1/2 cup raw rice ( I used Sona masoori) 
1/2 cup tuvar dal/arhar dal/pigeon peas (soak in 1.5 cups of hot water for 1/2 hr)
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
4 cups of water
salt to taste

For the Bisi Bele Bath masala:
Roasted and ground :
1 teaspoon  oil ( I use sesame oil)
1 teaspoon channa dal
1 teaspoon urad dal
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
5-6 dry red chillies ( adjust according to the heat of the red chillies)
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds/jeera
1 teaspoon peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon poppy seeds
1/4 teaspoon methi seeds
1/2” cinnamon stick
2 cloves
2 green cardamom
Add without roasting :
1/4 cup fresh coconut ( finely chopped)
gooseberry size tamarind (soak in 1/3 cup warm water for 15 mins)
1 teaspoon jaggery ( powdered)
For tempering :
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 bay leaf ( halved)(optional)
1 sprig curry leaves
1 large onion ( thinly sliced)
1/8 tsp turmeric powder
pinch of asafoetida
For garnish :
1 -2 tsp ghee ( If vegan use oil)
5-6 cashew nuts ( broken ) ( optional)
Important Notes: Add the dal along with the soaked water. Also, removing some sambar and adding it later will make sure that your BBB is not dry. You can even save some and add later whenever you are heating the BBB and serving it.
