Wow! I can’t believe I’m sitting in a restaurant in #singapore eating this! Khichdi is one of those things my mom would make on a rainy day that was an easy single dish dinner for the whole family. Warm, hearty and groovy in a very Indian way. It’s something that reminds me of my grandmother and countless dinners with my parents and brother.

What is it? Khichdi is basically green lentils and basmati rice with some spices boiled down in a pressure cooker in about 15 minutes. The water and rice do all the work as the rice sheds starches which combine with the lentils into a delicious porridge 🥣

At home we separately make a spicy oil mixture that goes really well as a topping once the dish is made. Here they topped it with fresh cherry tomatoes, broccoli, radish, and coriander!

Overall I gave the dish high marks but on taste I’d recommend they improve the texture. The lentils and rice are boiled down too much so it’s more of a paste than a porridge. Still delicious and worth trying!

Thanks Genius Central for a great meal for our monthly Singapore Vegan biz owners lunch!
