Khichdi Recipe |Chef Amrita Raichand

#WorldYogaDay is round the corner.
Yoga is also all about cleansing the mind from within and strengthening it from the outside. Similarly, eating healthy, cleanses and strengthens our bodies from inside out and believe me, making it a lifestyle is as important as perfecting an asana.
Also yoga is about eating Satvik food and what can be more so than “khichdi”
Here is a classic way of making the most comforting khichdi but with a fun twist! Layered with hung curd and chatpata papad churi, make this dish something that is far from boring!!
Khichdi
Ingredients
Rice - ¼ cup (washed & drained)
Moong dal - ½ cup (washed & drained)
Ghee - 1 tbsp
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Cinnamon stick- 1
Turmeric powder - ½ tsp
Salt - to taste
Water - 4 cups
Thick curd (to serve along with khichdi)
Method
- Heat ghee in a pressure cooker over medium flame, add cumin seeds & let them splutter.
- Add a cinnamon stick & let it fragrant.
- Now, add moong dal along with rice & stir it.
- Season with salt & turmeric powder. Sauté everything well.
- Add water and give a stir.
- Close the lid and cook on high heat till the first whistle. Then lower the heat and cook for another 3 whistles. Switch off the flame and keep the cooker aside.
- Once the pressure releases completely, open the lid and gently stir the khichdi.
- Pour in serving bowls and top with a layer of thick curd along with chatpati papad Churi.
The Papad Churi recipe is as follows-
Ingredients
Moong dal papad - 4
Ghee (melted) - 1 tbsp
Red chilli powder- ½ tsp

- Now, break the roasted papad in ghee mixture and toss everything together to combine well and the papad gets coated with masala.
