Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from ifood.tv. This is a traditional dessert recipe for an Onam Sadhya in Kerala, using a pressure cooker to save time. The taste depends on raw, unpolished good-quality pink rice. Kerala Matta rice (also known as Rosematta rice, Palakkadan Matta rice, Kerala Red rice, or Red parboiled rice) is an indigenous variety of rice grown in Palakkad District of Kerala. Best bet: try an Indian market. If you can't find any of those, a non-sticky rice like Basmati will work, but it won't have as much of the Kerala flavor.
