About Spinach khichdi

Spinach Khichdi is a nourishing one-pot dish rooted in Indian cuisine, celebrated for its simplicity and wholesome ingredients. This comforting meal is made by cooking rice and lentils together, complemented by fresh spinach, aromatic spices like cumin and turmeric, and optional additions such as garlic, ginger, or green chilies. Spinach, rich in iron, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, boosts the nutritional profile, while lentils provide plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like folate and magnesium. Turmeric adds anti-inflammatory benefits, enhancing its health appeal. Traditionally prepared with minimal oil, Spinach Khichdi is light on the digestive system and suitable for all age groups. While it’s a vegetarian dish, it can be modified to suit vegan diets. However, its carbohydrate content should be consumed in moderation by those monitoring their intake.
