Khichdi
When I’ve had a busy day and have no answers for “what’s for dinner?” I reach for lentils and rice. Khichdi—the ideal marriage of Split Green Gram and rice—is a comfort food that is nutritious, yummy and no-brainer to make. With the consistency of cooked oatmeal, Kichdi also provides the perfect base to pile on top other savory elements including sautéed or stir-fried greens and vegetables. Or, you can just serve it with plain yogurt or Raita.
