About this recipe
Kodo millet's distinctive taste—slightly bitter, slightly nutty—creates a khichdi with character and depth. Mixed vegetables add colour and texture, while moong dal provides protein and creaminess. This is a khichdi for those who enjoy grain-forward flavours and don't want moong dal to dominate the plate.

Method
- 1Rinse kodo millet and moong dal until the water runs mostly clear; soak 10 minutes if the grain is firm.
- 2Heat coconut oil in a cooker or deep pot, crackle cumin, then cook ginger with turmeric and spice powder for 30 seconds.
- 3Add beans, carrot and peas, kodo millet, moong dal, water and salt; stir well so nothing sticks to the base.
- 4Pressure cook until soft and creamy, then let the pressure drop naturally before opening.
- 5Stir to a soft khichdi texture, finish with coriander and lemon, and serve hot.
