What’s cooking? Green Moong and Quinoa Khichdi, papad + pickle + yogurt to make it a soul satisfying meal 💗 Khichdi is a dish in the South Asian cuisine made with rice and lentils, you can use grains of choice for some variations. It is a salty porridge and makes a wholesome meal 😊 I already have the rice version on my feed, it is also known as punjabi khichdi.
