Simple Chana Dal, Dill in addition to Tomato Khichri

Indian khichris — too known as kidgerees or kitcherees — are elementary rice too dissever edible bean pots flavored with herbs, spices or vegetables. They're a favorite of mine for real quick, slow too nourishing lunches or suppers. Not surprisingly, the sum texture of cooked chana dal makes it a pop diverseness of dissever edible bean to role inwards khichris with the fragile texture of rice, too piece I've already posted 1 chana dal too dill khichri, that item combination of dissever beans too herbs is worth only about other recipe.

While the first was a dry, fragrant medley of rice, dissever beans too herbs — or a "sookha khichri" — this 2nd version is a moist too savory stew, known as a "geeli khichri". Adapted from Yamuna Devi this khichri takes a picayune longer to create but is most only as elementary to prepare, too makes a hearty too delicious supper served with breadstuff too a greenish salad. Chana dal is easily available at Indian too Asian grocers, but substitute xanthous dissever peas for an as delicious meal.
