This recipe was prepared by a lovely Mom – Vijay Haldiya.
Tips and Suggestions by Mom Chef:-
- Wash sabudana in running water, so that starch is rinsed and washed away.
- Soak it 4 to 5 hours or overnight.
- Add water with its level just above 1 to 1.5 inches in the bowl for soaking it.
- Press a few pearls. It should mash easily. If you feel some hardness, then add a few tablespoons of water and leave for 30 minutes more.
- Excess moisture or water can make the khichdee mushy, sticky, and lumpy.
- If you are making it for fasting then always use rock salt.
