SABUDANA KHICHDI

         I tried this dish several times before but never used to get it right until I learnt it from my Mother-in-law couple of years back. This dish usually prepared during fasts.And she does fast a lot.

INGREDIENTS:
Sabudana - 1cup
Peanuts crushed - 2tbsp
Oil - 1 tbsp
Cumin - 1tsp
Green chilli slited - 2
Curry leaves - 4
Tomato chopped- 1
Potato cubed  - 1 small ( optional)
Coriander leaves chopped - 1 tbsp
Salt to taste

METHOD:

• Wash and soak sabudana in may be 3/4cup of water just until sabudana sinks for 4 hours. ( too much water will make the khichidi paste like and you don't want that)
• Heat oil in a pan, add curry leaves, green chili. Then add cumin seeds let it crackle.
• Add potatoes,let it cook for 3 mins.
• When the potatoes are done add tomato, continue to cook for couple of mins.
• Add sabudana, salt, peanuts. Keep stirring it for 3mins, until the sabudanas are little transparent that's when it's done. You may have to sprinkle little water from top.
• Sprinkle coriander leaves and serve hot.

Makes 2 servings.
