Rava Khichdi is a popular South Indian breakfast dish made from semolina (rava) and mixed vegetables. Unlike the traditional rice khichdi, this version is quick to prepare and has a soft, moist, and fluffy texture. It is seasoned with a tempering of mustard seeds, green chilies, and ginger, and enriched with seasonal veggies like carrots and beans. The use of ghee and cashews gives it a rich and buttery finish. It is a satisfying and wholesome meal that provides long-lasting energy. Best served hot with coconut chutney or a dollop of yogurt.

Tips & Secrets

  • Always roast the rava properly to ensure the khichdi is fluffy and not sticky.
  • Use a higher water-to-rava ratio (2.5:1) for a soft and moist texture.
  • Adding a little turmeric provides a beautiful yellow color to the dish.
  • Don't skimp on ghee; it is essential for the smooth mouthfeel of Rava Khichdi.
