About Mong dal khichdi
Mong Dal Khichdi is a comforting and nutritious one-pot dish hailing from Indian cuisine. Made with yellow moong dal (split mung beans), rice, and a medley of simple spices like turmeric and cumin, it's often enriched with ghee and garnished with fresh cilantro. This dish is renowned for its light and easily digestible nature, making it a popular choice for those recovering from illness or seeking a gentle meal for the digestive system. Rich in plant-based protein from the mung dal and providing a balanced energy source from rice, Mong Dal Khichdi is both nourishing and satisfying. Turmeric adds anti-inflammatory properties, while the minimal use of oil or ghee keeps the dish lower in fat. However, the nutritional profile can vary depending on the amount of ghee or oil used. Often paired with yogurt, pickles, or papad, it's a wholesome, versatile staple across Indian homes.
