Bisibele Bath (ಬಿಸಿಬೇಳೆಬಾತ್ )

Bisibelebath means hot lentil (dal) rice dish, which is common breakfast recipe in Karnataka. Bisibelebath is the rice dish where rice is cooked with lentil (dal), vegetables & spices.

Usually bisibelebath is prepared using Toor dal. Since I don't like toor dal flavour I use other variety of  dals. Also rice can be replace by either thick poha (beaten rice) or broken wheat or oats.
