After a long hiatus I am back to food blogging. This post is brought to you by a bad bout of cold. The last time I had a cold was when I visited, ahem, a very cold place.
It was January of 2017, when few of us visited the cold sleepy town or rather village of Roslyn, up in the Cascade mountains. Like any true Bong outing, it was less about where we went, but more about what we ate.
Since I was down with a cold, I mostly stayed indoors helping others cook. One of our friend BhaskarDa made this amazing Khichuri based on his better half SimkiDi’s recipe.
The great thing about this Khichuri is it’s simplicity and rustic taste.
Ingredients
- 1 cup gobindobhog rice ( Jeera rice)
- 1 cup yellow moong dal
- 2 tbsp. cumin seeds
- 2-3 bay leaves
- 2-3 dry red chilies
- 1” raw ginger grated
- 1 cup medium sized cauliflower florets
- 1 cub medium sized cubed potato
- 4 tbsp. oil
- 2 tsp. ghee
- 1 tsp. sugar
- Salt to taste
Procedure
Wash rice and drain the water and keep aside.
In a frying pan take moong dal and dry roast it on medium flame till you get a nutty aroma and dal starts taking a nice brown hue.
Remove from the heat and wash it. Now soak the dal in water.
In a heavy bottomed pan heat two tbsp. oil and temper it with one tbsp. cumin seeds, bay leaves and dry red chilies. When you get a nice aroma add washed and drained rice to it and fry them on very low heat for about five minutes.
Once you start getting the flavor of the fried rice add soaked dal along with its water to it. Give them a hearty stir. Add salt and cook it covered. you need to check the water level time to time and need to replenish if required.
In the mean time smear the cauliflower florets and potato cubes with little salt and start heating the rest of the oil in a frying pan..
Once the oil is hot enough fry the cauliflower florets and the potato cubes on medium heat. Remove them from oil and keep aside.
When the rice and dal mixture is three fourth cooked add the fried cauliflower florets and potato to it. Check the seasoning and the water level and adjust accordingly. This is the time you add grated ginger and sugar. Mix once more and cook it covered.
When the khichuri is done, turn off the heat. In a small frying pan heat ghee till it melts and temper it with the rest of the cumin seeds. When they stop sputtering, pour it over the khichuri and immediately cover the pot. Keep it covered till you serve.
