• 1 tsp sesame seeds
• 2 tsp oil
• 1 tsp jeera (cumin seeds)

2. Heat oil in a pan and add jeera. Sauté it for a minute or until it turns aromatic.
3. Add crushed groundnuts and sesame to it and sauté it for 2 - 3 mins.
4. Add cooked broken wheat and chili flakes and mix it properly.
5. Garnish with some crushed peanuts and serve hot.

Notes

Personal Note:

This khichdi is a good alternative to Sabudana (tapioca) khichdi. It’s quite filling, nutritious, and one of my favorite dishes.
