Sabudana khichdi is an Indian dish very much popular in Maharashtra and other western parts of India. When you are on a "No grain diet", this is the perfect meal, healthy and tasty.
Ingredients:
1. Sabudana (tapioca pearls) - one cup
2. Potato (boiled) - half cup
3. Rock salt (sendha namak) - This is used when you are fasting - take as per your taste
4. Peanuts (optional) - 2 tsp (roasted)
5. Green chilli - 2 or as per taste
6. Ginger - 1 inch piece (chopped)
7. Ghee - 1 tsp
8. Cumin seeds / Jeera - 1/2 tsp
9. Coriander leaves - 1 tsp (chopped)
10. Grated Coconut (optional) - 1 tsp
Process :
1. Rinse the sabudana couple of times in running water until all the starch is washed away and soak them over night or 4-5 hours. To check if the sabudana has become soft of not, you should be easily able to press the sabudana and it should get mashed up easily. Do Strain very well as there should not be any extra water.
2. Take the potatoes, wash, peel and cut into pieces and boil them. Keep aside once they are done.
3. Take a frying pan, on a medium flame add ghee and cumin seeds, let them crackle and get browned. now add the chopped green chillies and ginger pieces and fry for few seconds on medium flame. Add boil potatoes and mix well. Since this recipe is used while fasting, so no use of any kind of masala.
4. Add sabudana pearls and on the low flame saute them stirring continuously for 4-5 minutes. Add rock salt. If you are using peanuts and grated coconuts, you can add them as well. I have not used any of them. Saute till the sabudana become translucent. Sprinkle coriander leaves and serve hot.
