Notes
- Khichdi is best served fresh. As it cools down it will continue to thicken. Any leftovers can be refrigerated for 2 to 3 days. To reheat microwave and top with some ghee.
- For a vegan or dairy-free option, skip ghee and cook khichdi in neutral oil
- Pav Bhaji Masala adds authentic flavors to this dish. You can buy it from Indian grocery stores or try my homemade pav bhaji masala recipe.
