Instructions
Wash grains and lentils. Drain water and keep aside.
In a pressure cooker pot, heat up Oil + Ghee on a medium to high heat.
Add Mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add cumin seeds, Turmeric, Ground coriander cumin, red chili powder and stir well.
Add onion and saute for about 1 minutes. Add ginger, garlic and green chili.
Add remaining vegetables and saute for another minute or so.
Add garam masala and salt.
Now, ready to add washed lentils and grains.
Add water, stir well and cover the pressure cooker.
Hear about 2-3 whistles only. If you like soft khichdi, 3 whistles or else 1 or 2 works as well for little grainy khichdi like biryani or pulao.
Turn off the stove and allow pressure cooker to cool.
Open the cooker and serve khichdi steamy hot with Chhas or Kadhi.
Garnish with coriander leaves.
Don't forget Kachumber salad and papad! Enjoy!
