SABUDANA KHICHADI

INGREDIENTS ;
  • 2 cups sago ( sabudana )
  • red chilli powder ; according to taste
  • 3-4 green chillies ( chopped )
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 small piece, ginger
  • 1/4 tsp jeera ( cumin seeds )
  • 1/2 cup crushed peanuts
  • 1 tbsp oil or ghee
  • salt to taste
  • coriander leaves for garnishing
METHOD ;

Soak sago in water. Drain the excess water and keep it aside for half and half to one
hour ( depending on the quality of sago as sometimes needs to be soaked overnight in a
bit of water ) Finely chop the green chillies and grate the piece of ginger. Heat oil or
ghee in a pan. Add jeera, chopped green chillies and ginger to it. Add sago and stir
continuously. Now add crushed peanuts, salt, lemon juice, red chilli powder and mix
well. Cook it uncovered for sometime and keep stirring it so that sago doesn't stick
to the bottom of the pan. When cooked, garnish it with green coriander leaves and
serve hot.
