Paragraph how to make Bengali food khichuri
Answers
Answer:
Bengali khichdi recipe with step by step photos. Bhaja muger dal khichuri is a delicious one-pot meal of rice, moong dal and vegetables. This Bengali khichuri recipe is always made during durga puja festival. It is served as bhog to ma durga along with some other Bengali delicacies. A satvik, vegan and no onion no garlic recipe.
Explanation:
The Bengali khichdi has an addition of mixed vegetables that we generally add to pulao like – cauliflower, green peas, potatoes, carrots etc. I just had potatoes, cauliflower and peas and hence added these to the khichdi.
Adding the vegetable to this rice and lentil preparation makes it a wholesome one-pot meal. You can even skip adding vegetables if you prefer.
Again like the cholar dal, in this recipe, panch phoron is not used. The khichuri is made fragrant by tempering whole garam masala or spices like bay leaf, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom.
The moong dal is roasted first and this imparts a lovely warm aroma and taste to the khichdi. this is also a no onion no garlic recipe. The consistency of the khichdi can be adjusted to one’s preference. The khichdi that is served during durga puja has a porridge like consistency. To suit the family’s taste buds, I did not make a porridge like khichdi
