    PAV BHAJI KHICHDI: A COMBINATION OF BLAND AND FIERY FLAVOUR

    Jagriti ShuklaBy Jagriti ShuklaMarch 20, 20234 Mins Read

    Khichdi is one of the comfort food but I have done some fusion with this simple recipe and give new flavours to this bland boring Khichdi. It is a very simple recipe but some variations make the commendable taste where a mix of nutrients with some spicy taste. It has a very simple recipe where simple chichi is mixed bhaji which is a fusion of flavours in the mouth with a bite. I tried to make the simple khichdi with other variations. A precooked khichdi and vegetables but there is a little variation in a recipe it is made like Pavbhaji style and served a dollop of butter.

    History Of Khichdi

    Khichdi is a food that has ancient roots and is known to be the most enduring culinary export and it has an unimaginable number of mouth-watering flavours such as sweet and savoury variation which is healthy and amazing in taste. The name “khichdi” comes from the Sanskrit word Khicca meaning a dish made form rice and lentils but in many other regions have other variation such as bajra khichdi or moong khadi. In India, it is known to be solid food for babies to eat.

    It is the dish that has been found in Mahabharta where Draupadi said to fed Khichdi to the Pandas during the exile. Also, it was a grain of rice from it eaten by Lord Krishna that made a hungry and furious where Rishi Durvasha lose his appetite when he and his disciples dropped in suddenly for lunch. It is also mentioned in Sudama’s story where he reached to Vrindavan to meet his friend Lord Krishna where he is carried two potlis, one is containing khichdi and other roasted gram. Where the khichdi patly is snatched by the monkeys so he took other potli of a roasted gram for his beloved friend. There are many other stories related to khichdi with many emperors and Britishers.
