Rajasthani Khichdi, Pulao Recipes

Khichdi, the simple one pot meal, is the staple at most Indian households. Made using a handful of ingredients, it is best relished with ghee, papad, curd and pickle. Other than rice and lentils, it can be combined with varieties of pulses and vegetables. Steaming hot Khichdi can warm your soul on a cold winter’s night!

Rajasthani specialties like Gehun ki Bikaneri Khichdi are not only tasty and homely, but also sumptuous to be served as a complete meal, with a bowl of kadhi. Rajasthanis also love to cook rice into aromatic and flavourful Pulaos like Gatte Ka Pulao. It is specially made during festive occasions when plain steamed rice is not served. As vegetables are not available throughout the year, cooked gattas are added to spice up this pulao, which is usually served with kadhi or plain curds .

The goodness of millets with protein rich moong dal, this Bajra Khichdi, with its creamy consistency and mild flavours, is both comforting and satiating and makes a lovely meal when served with a cup of raita. You can also add some vegetables and make a healthy bowl of Bajra, Whole Moong and Green Pea Khichdi which is a complete meal in its own right.
