Pongal is a popular rice dish, originating from Tamil Nadu. In Tamil "pongal" " means to " boil over " or "spill over".

There are two varieties of pongal, Sakkarai Pongal which is a sweet, and Venn Pongal, made from clarified butter. The word pongal generally refers to spicy pongal, and is a common breakfast food in Tamil Nadu and other south indian states. The rice boiled with milk and jaggery during the Pongal festival is called Sakkaraippongal - this is sweet pongal made specially in earthenware pots with a wood fire.
