- Cook on medium heat .
- Quantity of water depends on the quality of rice ,if water is less you can sprinkle little water .
- I have used basmati rice.
- Adding hot water decrease cooking time.
- It’s a great combo for chicken or mutton gravy .
- Y not add kasoori methi .
- I have used more ghee for more flavour ,you can increase and decrease it.
- This is a dry version of khichdi ,if you want loose texture then double the quantity of water
- You can drizzle some hot ghee while serving and garnish with coriander leaves .
