halvo khichdi
Both the khichdis here are made with 2 main ingredients - rice and split moong daal. The one on the left is with yellow moong daal (skin off) and the one to the right with green moong daal (skin on). I consider this to be the ultimate baby or sick food! It goes well with kadhi, bateka nu shaak or simply with a dollop of ghee.
⅛ cup rice
¼ cup split moong daal, either with skin on or off
1 tbsp ghee
1 tsp salt
Wash the rice and daal together at least 3 times until the water runs clear. Then place in a pressure cooker with enough water to cover it. Cook for about 4 to 5 whistles. The rice should be all mushy and cooked through. In a medium saucepan on high, heat ghee. Add the khichdi, salt and about ½ cup of water. Stir frequently until most of the water disappears and desired consistency is achieved.
Serve hot with kadhi, bateka nu shaak or ghee.
