Ingredients

 

1x2x3x

• ▢ ½ cup daliya - broken wheat
• ▢ ¼ cup moong dal
• ▢ 2 tbsp ghee
• ▢ 1 tsp mustard seeds
• ▢ 1 tsp cumin seeds
• ▢ Pinch of hing
• ▢ 1 dry red chilli
• ▢ Few curry leaves
• ▢ ½ tsp ginger paste
• ▢ ¼ tsp turmeric powder
• ▢ 1 tsp chilli powder
• ▢ ½ tsp garam masala
• ▢ Salt to taste
• ▢ ½ cup carrot
• ▢ 2 tbsp green peas
• ▢ ½ cup potatoes
• ▢ 1 chopped tomatoes
• ▢ 2.5 cup water

Instructions

• Wash and soak daliya and moong dal for 20 minutes. Drain water and keep it aside
• Turn on Geek robocook on strong sauté mode.
• Heat ghee or oil. Add mustard seed, cumin seeds, a pinch of hing, dry red chilli, curry leaves and ginger paste. Sauté for a minute.
• Then add soaked daliya and moong dal mixture. Sauté it for 3 minutes.
• Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, garam masala, and salt. Also add chopped carrots, potatoes, peas, and tomatoes. Mix well.
• Add 2.5 cup water and mix well.
• Cover the electric pressure cooker with a locking lid.
• Cancel sauté mode and select the option of khichdi and set the cooker on quick taste or under high pressure.
• Once the electric pressure cooker beeps and on the display screen you see LO:00, turn off the cooker.
• Let the pressure release naturally.
• Open the lid. Fada khichdi is ready.
• Serve khichdi with raita and papad.

Notes

• The proportion of moong dal should be half of the broken wheat (daliya)
• Ghee gives a nice flavor to khichdi.
• Sauté daliya and moong dal with ghee helps to puff up daliya easily.
• If you made fada khichdi in a regular cooker, then add 3 cup water instead of 2.5 cup water.
