Kerala Kanji Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

A fibre-rich, healthy meal, Kerala Kanji is a simple rice porridge. Malayalis eat it regularly, especially when they are sick, since it's easily digestible. In Kerala, the dish is considered comfort food after a tiring day. It can also be eaten for breakfast because of its energy-boosting properties.

‘Kanji’ is originally a Tamil word. European languages have seen variations of the word like ‘candgie’ in Latin, ‘cangia’ in Italian and ‘canjé’ in French. Kerala Kanji is very similar to Chinese congee, which can be traced back to 1000 BC, during the reign of the Zhou dynasty.
