Easy and Traditional Khichdi

So let's talk about a traditional recipe today. It's the age-old traditional food, everyone's favorite 'Khichdi'.

So what all do you require for this?


  • Musur dal-1.5 cup
  • Rice-2 cups
  • Onion, Crushed Garlic, Chilies
  • Garam Masala Chili Powder, Dhania powder, Mustard Seeds, Cumin Seeds (or Jeera)
  • Peanuts, Coriander Leaves
  • Green Veggies (here I have used potato, carrot, tomato, spring onion and peas-you can skip any of it or add any other vegetable of your choice too)
*the quantity of rice and daal mentioned is to suffice for 2-3 people


How to make it?

Take a pressure cooker (because the whole recipe will be done in a cooker only), put 3 spoons of oil and let it warm. Add the mustard, jeera, crushed garlic, saute a bit. Then add the peanuts and onions, after onions have become brownish, add the vegetables and the masalas (Garam Masala Chili Powder, Dhania powder) and also salt and turmeric.

Saute a bit again, for like 2-3 minutes, then add the rice and daal which was already soaked in water for sometime (like 30 minutes). Stir a bit. Add one spoon of ghee and then add water.

Amount of water added is 1:2.5 proportion, but if you like the khichdi being watery and runny, add more water, chose the lid of the cooker and let it have 2-3 whistles.

Then you are done!!

Serve it with papad or omelet or fish fry and some lemon and coriander leaves from the top!!

That makes your delicious traditional khichdi ready!!

Enjoy!!

Jovees Honey and Apple Conditioning Shampoo Review

So today is another review day! And today I'm gonna talk about the product which has been with me for the longest time ever☺ Yah, as you all must have understood by the caption, today I will be sharing my review about Jovees Honey and Apple Conditioning Shampoo. I have been using this shampoo for the longest time ever! For the last FOUR years, I'm using it. Not that I'm saying this is the best shampoo ever in the market and blah blah, but it surely suits my hair the best out of all the shampoos that I had used before coming across this one. So the shampoo actually looks like this: The shampoo had a different packaging when I just started using it and is now in this form. So you can understand I have seen all phases of this shampoo. LOL!! I actually have very dry and rough hair and was looking for some shampoo which will keep it soft and not make it even drier after hair wash. This exactly serves the purpose. It is transparent and has a very mild and nice f...

Mixed Noodles

As the name suggests, this is a veggie cum non-veg noodles recipe!! The simplest ever, but is also healthy and much more filling than regular instant noodle. So what all do you need for this? Instant Noodles (any brand) and the masala of it, Vegetables (here I have taken a carrot, capsicum, potato, and onion-you can also use other vegetables of your wish), Eggs (here I have used 2) Cumin seeds, salt, turmeric. How to make it? First, boil the noodles and keep it aside. (Remember to strain off excess water from the noodles and also wash the noodles with cold water after its boiled to remove the stickiness of the noodle.) Take a kadai, one spoon oil. Add the cumin seeds, salt, and turmeric. Then add the chopped onions, let it get brownish. Now add rest of the vegetables. Let them cook for a while. Then add the noodles masala, stir and then add eggs (you can also add chicken). Stir for 1-2 minutes till the egg is cooked. Now add the already boiled noodles. Mix well, and ...
