Notes
Add water as per consistency you need.For soupy consistency I have added 3.5 cups water for 1 cup dalia. After opening lid of cooker, if you feel there is more water, then simmer on high flame till excess water is evaporated and you reach desired consistency.If you want little thicker consistency add 2 to 2.5 cup water.Also you may add tomatoes for this recipe. I have not taken tomatoes. So I'm adding lemon juice for that sour taste.
