samvat rice khichdi recipe, how to make sama chawal khichdi recipe

samvat rice khichdi recipe with step by step photos – simple, easy and healthy khichdi made with sama ke chawal also known as barnyard millet.

sama ke chawal are regularly used during fasting and are very healthy. you can make variety of recipes with them like sama ke chawal ki kheer, sama ke chawal ka pulao, sama ke chawal ki idli and so on. two more khichdi recipe you can make for fasting are sabudana khichdi and kuttu ki khichdi recipe.

this khichdi has a porridge like consistency. if you want a separate grain consistency, then add less water. details mentioned in the step wise pics below.

serve sama chawal khichdi with vrat ki kadhi, peanut amti, vrat wale aloo, dahi aloo, dahi arbi or any curry meant for fasting. plain curd also goes well with it.

step by step samvat rice or sama chawal khichdi recipe:

1. in a bowl, soak the sama chawal for an hour. drain and then keep aside.

2. in a thick bottomed pan heat 2 tbsp ghee or peanut oil in a pan. add 1 tsp cumin seeds.

3. fry the cumin seeds till they change color.

4. now add 1 to 1.5 tsp ginger+green chili paste and 1/2 tsp crushed black pepper. saute till the raw aroma of both the green chilies and ginger goes away.

5. then add ½ cup potato cubes.

6. stir and saute for two to three minutes.

7. then add the drained sama chawal.

8. stir and saute for a minute.

9. add 3 cups water. stir again. 3 cups water makes the khichdi mushy and with a porridge consistency, which we prefer. if you want separate grains then just add 1.5 to 2 cups water. you can also make this khichdi in a pressure cooker.

10. season with rock salt/sendha namak and stir well.

11. cover the pan with a lid and on a low flame allow the grains to simmer and get cooked.

12. do check and stir at intervals.

13. once the grains have softened and cooked well, switch off the flame. you can add about 2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves here and mix. also if you prefer, you can add some lemon juice. since i was serving the khichdi with vrat ki kadhi which is also sour, i did not add lemon juice.

14. serve samvat rice khichdi topped with a bit of ghee and garnished with coriander leaves with vrat ki kadhi, peanut amti, vrat wale aloo, dahi arbi, dahi aloo or any curry meant for fasting. you can also have this khichdi with plain yogurt.
