Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 cup Rice
  
• 1/3 cup Urad Daal
  
• 1/3 cup Chana Daal
  
• 1/3 cup Yellow Split Peas
  
• 1 teaspoon Salt
  
• 1 teaspoon Red Chili Powder
  
• 1 (large) Onion (opt.)
  
• 1 Carrot (opt.)
  
• 1/4 cup Coconut – grated (opt.)
  

Directions:

[1] Mix Rice, Chana Daal, Urad Daal, and Yellow Split Peas in a large
vessel. Soak in a lot of water for about 2 hours.

[2] Grind the soaked mixture with Chili Power and salt coarsely,
without adding much water.

[3] Ferment for about 3 – 4 hours, then refrigerate or freeze. In
cold weather, the fermenting process might take longer, and
it might be a good idea to ferment in an oven (the pilot light
will keep the mixture warm).

[4] Add either onions (finely cut), carrot (grated) or coconut
before preparing.

Freezing Notes:

If freezing, only ferment for about an hour. The mixture will
have to left outside for a while before being ready to use.
