Dhalia Kitchidi:
===========

Dalia - 1 cup, wash and drain
black channa- 3 tblsp , soak overnight, boil with little salt
peanuts - 3 tblsp soak and drain
frozen corn - 3 tblsp
carrots - 2 tblsp , cubed in small size
potato - 3 tblsp, cubed in small size
beans - 2, cut like potato and carrots
frozen peas - 2 tblsp, optional
now in a pressure pan, add oil 2 tsp, 1 tsp ghee add rai, jeera for tadka, bit of hing, little ginger grated and fry nicely, then add dalia, fry for 2 to 3 mins, then add black channa, peanuts, corn, peas, beans, carrot, potatoes fry for 2 minutes,then add pav bhaji masala - 1 tsp, salt, turmeric powder and add 2 1/2 cups of water, once it comes to boil check salt and spice. if everything is ok then close the pan and allow it to cook for 2 whistles in high flame then switch off the stove, garnish with chopped coriander leaves and 1 tsp of ghee. it is very tasty and crunchy coz of vegs and dhals, nuts.we have it with curd.
it is very filling too. we like this version of kitchidi.
