The comfort of ven pongal, now with little millet
Pongal is one of South India’s most beloved breakfast dishes, warm, ghee-kissed, and deeply satisfying. Our Samai Pongal Mix brings you that same authentic flavour, now made with saami (little millet) instead of white rice. All the comfort of classic ven pongal, with the nourishment of an ancient whole grain.
This little millet pongal mix is pre-measured and pre-mixed, so all you need is water, a pan, and 10 minutes. A healthy instant breakfast that fits into any morning routine.
Why samai makes a better pongal
Samai has more fibre, a lower glycaemic index, and a better micronutrient profile than polished white rice. This samai pongal digests slowly, keeps you fuller longer, and avoids the mid-morning energy crash. A genuinely healthy pongal mix for the whole family, including kids and elderly.
