Moong Dal Khichdi

#cookpadindia #hyderabadi #onepotmeal Moong Daal or Yellow Lentils Khichdi is an amazing one pot meal known for it's incredible taste. Though it's quite simple on it's own, a huge array of different side dishes and accompaniments is what makes this way too incredible. It's an absolutely tempting platter that can be enjoyed on any day. The guests would also love it. This is made for a yummy Breakfast on a weekend in my City. However it can be made for Lunch as well and at times when you have sudden guests or friends dropping by. It's a delicious and a complete meal in itself. Gets done pretty much easily too. And suffices a large gathering too. Serve it with some hot and crisp Poppadoms or Papads as well for a lovely meal. Or with some freshly tempered Dahi or Curd. The choices are endless. Pickle, Ghee and Kheema also tastes great alongside this.

Saute for a minute and then add water as required accordingly along with the salt. For the first 10 minutes, let it cook on a high flame stirring in between to mix everything well. After 10 minutes, lower the flame and cover. In between just keep mixing it gently. That's it. It gets done pretty quickly. Yum!
