How to make khichdi at home?
The khichdi is one of the simplest dishes you can make; all you have to do is cook the spices and onions in ghee or oil until they are fragrant.

What is Marathi Khichdi made of?
This marathi khichdi is cooked with rice and yellow dal lentils, and it has only the bare minimum of spices and flavorings to taste. The addition of goda masala and coconut enhances the flavor and makes it much more tasty. Along with the tomatoes and onions, I’ve added a few more veggies to make it a more substantial and satisfying dish.
How to cook khichri?
Check the consistency of the khichri after it has been cooked. If the sauce is too thick, add a little boiling water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Continue to cook for a few more minutes if you want a thinner consistency. You may also serve it with raita or a salad of your choice.
