Let me share few tips to make perfect Ulundhorai recipe(Ulundu Sadam recipe),
- Roasting the urad dhal with ghee gives nice flavor to the rice so we should not skip ghee and roast the urad dal to golden brown not light brown or a burnt urad dal. both spoil the taste.
- Powder the roasted urad dal into a coarse powder, not fine powder(like how we powder for idli podi)
- Boil the Spiced Urad Powder in the milk and cook the mix in the low flame then only we will get the Urad dal paste if it high flame into lumps or the mix will get burn.
- Add a tsp of ghee while mixing the rice and also the rice should not be hot or sticky( we need uthri rice)

the ulundhorai mix what we prepared should be consumed on the same day itself because we have added milk we can't store it for later.
if still, you want to store then skip the step of boiling the spice powder with the milk, just add the spice powder directly with the rice and the tempering+ghee serve.
we love to have ulundhorai with potato fry 😉
