Ada Hengu Khechudi/ Oriya khichadi

#goldenapron2 #week2 #Orissa Ada Hengu Khechudi is a very simple khichdi made in Orissa. This khechudi is served as prasad in the famous temple of Lord Jagannath in Orissa. The rice is flavoured with just grated ginger and asafoetida. It is usually served with Dalma (a mixed vegetable and lentil-based dish from Orissa) . A super simple and satvik khechudi yet very flavourful. As they don't allow anybody inside the temple kitchen, the proportions are after lots of trials, the closest to the taste as experienced there.
