Here's How To Make Rajasthani Bajre Ki Khichdi

 You might have seen a lot of khichadi recipes. Today the one I am going to show is made with bajra. Its quite warm but nutritious and a winter delight. 

I am going to cook everything in a pressure cooker. So let’s turn on the flame. 

Add a spoon of oil. Once the oil is nice and hot add 1 spoon of cumin seed

Add bay leaves, cinnamon stick, and 2 cloves. 

Let this cook for a few seconds.

Add a spoon of ginger garlic paste and mix it well.

Add 1 finely chopped onions and cook them well

Add 2 chopped tomatoes. 

Reduce the flame and let the tomatoes softener 

Meanwhile chop the veggies: beans and carrot. 

Add these veggies into it and mix it well. Also, add green peas. You can add any vegetable of your choice. 

Soak the 1 gram bajra for 6-7 hours. And the soaked bajra into the cooker. 

What is a khichadi if there is no daal in it. 

So I also add a half cup of soaked moong daal. You can use any daal of your choice like tur daal or green moong daal.

Give it a nice mix. Its time for a seasoning spices. 

Add 1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder

1 tsp Garam Masala Powder

1 tsp Coriander & Cumin Seed Powder

1/2 tsp Red Chilli Powder and two chopped green chilies.

And salt to taste and mix it well. 

Add the 500ml - 750ml water to it. 

It takes a lot of water because a bajra takes a lot of time to cook. 

After adding the water wait for 4-5 whistles. Let it cool down for 20-30 minutes and then open it.

Add some ghee to it for more flavor and also a little bit of coriander leaves. 

Plate it and serve. 

Rajasthani Bajre Ki Khichdi is a superfood and it is rich in iron, protein and many nutrients. 

Do give try to this recipe.
