Sabudana Khichdi
Ingredients
Method
Wash sabudana in 3-4 changes of water until water runs clear. Soak in just enough water to cover for 6-8 hours. Each pearl should be swollen, separate, and soft to press.
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed kadhai. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Add curry leaves and green chilies.
Add cubed potatoes with a pinch of sendha namak. Cook on medium heat, covered, for 8-10 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Add soaked sabudana. Gently fold — do not stir aggressively or the pearls will become gummy. Cook uncovered on medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
Add crushed peanuts, remaining sendha namak, and a squeeze of lemon. Toss gently. The khichdi is ready when the pearls turn translucent.
Garnish with fresh coriander. Serve hot with a side of yogurt or green chutney.
