• Wash rice and moong dal thoroughly and let them soak in water for 10-15 minutes. This will help soften them and make digestion easier.
• Heat ghee in a pan. Add cumin seeds and when the cumin seeds start crackling, add grated ginger, turmeric, asafoetida and celery and fry a little.
• Now add soaked rice and pulses and also add curry leaves. Mix everything well for a few seconds. Now add 2 cups of water in it and add salt as per taste. Cover and leave it to boil.
• Let the khichdi cook for 10-15 minutes, until the rice and dal are completely cooked and become soft. If needed, you can add water in between, so that the right amount of water remains in the khichdi.
• After cooking, take out the khichdi in a serving plate and add some ghee on top and serve it hot.
