Gehun Ki Bikaneri Khichdi

A twist to the regular khichdi where lentils and rice are used can be done using wheat. Wheat is a good source of carbohydrates and yellow moong dal has valuable protein. By combining both these ingredients, you can prepare Gehun ki Bikaneri Khichdi. Flavour this khichdi with asafoetida and cumin seeds, which enhances the taste and aroma of this dish.
