MOONG DAL KHICHDI RECIPE WITH VIDEO

Moong dal khichdi is a healthy, delicious and comfort food that is often served for lunch with Toor dal sambar, or barbooth. At home we usually serve Moong dal Khichdi with Ande ka Barbooth (Eggs in tomato gravy) and mint chutney. The combination of plain khichdi with the slightly sour Barbooth tastes delicious.
