I get very excited when I am able to feed something healthy to my toddler son. He has been enjoying eating this millets khichdi.

Its a good grain replacement for the regular rice based khichdi. You can use any millet rice to make it. I used barnyard millet, also called vrat ke chawal or sama rice. You can also add mixed veggies to it.

This is a great way to add diversity to the grain intake of kids....adults too ;-), else we keep eating only wheat & rice which is highly processed these days!! Try & let me know how it was.

Ingredients

• Millet rice - 1 cup
• Moong dal - 1/2 cup
• Water - 5 to 6 cups
• Red chilli - 1 or 2
• Mustard seeds - 1/2 to 1 tsp
• Curry leaves - 10 to 15
• Cold pressed oil - 1 to 2 tbsp
• Onion - 1
• Rock salt - 1 tsp or as per taste
• Haldi - 1/2 tsp

Method

• Take a pan. Make tadka with oil, curry leaves, red chilli, mustard seeds and onion.
• Wash millet rice and dal thoroughly. Put them in a pressure cooker, add water and give 3-4 whistles.
