Khichdi also known as khichadi or khichuri is a comfort food that's most commonly eaten all over India. Most people refer khichdi to be the food for babies and the sick as it is bland in taste.
Khichdi is one of the most well liked of current trending meals in the world. It’s enjoyed by millions every day. It’s simple, it is quick, it tastes yummy. They’re nice and they look fantastic. Khichdi is something that I have loved my whole life.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have khichdi using 16 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Khichdi:
- Make ready Yellow lentil (masoor dal)
- Get Tapioca seeds (sabaduna)
- Get Star anise
- Take Cinnamon sticks
- Make ready cardamoms ,
- Take cloves
- Get shahi jeera
- Get Kasuri methi
- Prepare medium size onion
- Make ready Basmati rice
- Make ready Salt
- Make ready Turmeric powder
- Make ready Ginger garlic paste
- Prepare Oil for cooking
- Take Few Coriander leaves
- Make ready Water accordingly as per rice quantity
Khichdi is a lovely comfort food often served for breakfast, but I find it makes a wonderful side dish with a curry or salad, or a light main dish. I have eaten khichdis prepared by Indian friends that were like porridge, with the mung beans and rice indistinguishable because it was cooked until almost smooth. Khichdi is the ultimate pantry dinner. It requires only rice, split mung beans, various warming spices, and ghee—ingredients I always have around and that tend to keep for a while.
Steps to make Khichdi:
- Just arrange all the ingredients in a plate to assemble like a map though we will use this in cooking next we will soak the basmati rice for about one hour
- Wash & Soak sago seeds & Masoor dal for 20 minutes
- Take a wok add in oil & cinnamon sticks, cloves,cardamoms & shahzeera sauté for one minute & add chopped onions sprinkle a pinch of salt onions will turn to golden colour then add ginger garlic paste sauté for more two minutes
- Add in the soaked basmati rice,Masoor dal & sago seeds I.e sabudana & water 2 & 1/2 glass according to my rice cooking time your water measurements may vary
- Gradually add in the salt, turmeric powder, kasuri methi, coriander leaves once the water comes to a boil cover the lid
- Let it cook on low flame burner for about 10 minutes check using a spoon if rice cooking is done & no moisture is left then keep it cover for five minutes
- Now it’s ready to serve the healthy khichdi with tomato curry, pickles & mint chutney..!
