About Kitchari

Kitchari is a traditional Ayurvedic dish from Indian cuisine, celebrated for its simplicity and nourishment. Made from a combination of white or brown rice, split mung beans, and an array of aromatic spices like turmeric, cumin, and ginger, it is often cooked with vegetables for added flavor and nutrients. This wholesome meal is known for its ability to support digestion and detoxification, making it a staple in cleansing and healing diets. Rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, kitchari provides a balanced source of energy while being gentle on the gut. Its anti-inflammatory spices and plant-based ingredients promote overall wellness, while variations in preparation allow for customization based on individual needs. However, those monitoring carbohydrate intake should consider portion sizes. Loved for its versatility and restorative qualities, kitchari remains a timeless example of healthy comfort food.
