Khichdi – a dish comprising dals and lentils – is one of the best comfort foods ever. It can be had piping hot on its own, with dahi or even some spicy pickle. It is also recommended to settle a stomach and during other illnesses. Whole foods nutritionist Kajal Bhatia shares her recipe of Suran Khichdi…

Ingredients:

Elephant foot yam (suran) – 600 grams

Peanuts – cup

Cumin seeds – 1 tsp

Hing – just a pinch

Lemon – half

Salt – to taste

Coriander leaves – a few

Method:
Steam the suran in a pressure cooker. Now, peel the skin off and mash the suran well. Take a few peanuts and dry roast them. Make a coarse peanut powder by grinding this together. Mix the yam, roast peanuts mixture, some green chillies and some salt. Take a thick-bottomed vessel. In it, add a few drops of oil, cumin or jeera seeds. Also add a pinch of hing and saute. When it is ready, add the yam mixture to it on the stovetop and blend it further for a few minutes on low heat for few minutes. Add lemon and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve the khichdi warm.
