This is a completely different take on the normal khichdi. While the moong dal khichdi is good during illness, this one makes no such claims. It is just a really tasty rice dish.
Ingredients:
1˝ cup basmati rice
˝ cup urad dal (split, with skin)
1 onion, finely chopped
5 garlic cloves, minced
5 cloves
2 tbsp mustard oil
3 cups water
Salt
Method:
- Wash the rice and dal.
- Heat mustard oil in a pressure cooker and add cloves, onion, garlic and sauté.
- Add the rice and dal and stir for 1 minute.
- Add water and salt and pressure cook for 7 minutes.
- Top with ghee and serve.
- Handy Tip: Whenever you use basmati rice, always wash it just before cooking. If you wash it in advance, the rice tends to become sticky once cooked
