This is a very easy to make sweet dish with rice and very less ingredients.

Here I prepared sweet pongal with brown rice and jaggery to make it more nutritious. You can use any rice varieties of your choice. I made this sweet pongal in a traditional way hence no milk is added to this recipe. If you want you can add coconut milk which gives a unique taste to the pongal. I have already posted Paal pongal/ Milk Pongal recipe with milk and rice.
