1.

Soak the hulled wheat in water for 1 hour.

2.

Strain the wheat and transfer to a pressure cooker. Add 1 cup of water and cook under high pressure till the wheat is cooked (5-6 whistles).

3.

In a separate saucepan, add the coconut milk, jaggery, lemongrass stalks and put on medium heat. Keep stirring gently till the milk reduces to half.

4.

Pass the reduced milk through a sieve to remove lemongrass stalks and get a smooth thick mix. To this add the pressure cooked wheat & saffron and further cook it for 20 mins.

5.

To serve (can be served hot or cold), spoon it onto a plate and top with some candied lemons.
