Whenever i get bored of our usual rava upma, i wont even hesitate a minute to make rava khichadi with roasted rava along with plenty of veggies. Some may call this khichadi as khaarabath, for a change this time, i quickly and simply prepared this wonderful looking cornmeal khichadi for our yesterday dinner. You can add any sort of veggies to make this delicious khichadi or else cook just with onions and tomatoes. Serve this colourful khichadi with thick coconut chutney, i can have it anytime.
An excellent,quick and easy breezy breakfast or dinner to enjoy without any hesitation.My mom used to make this khichadi with garlic cloves instead of ginger garlic paste and temper it with whole spices like clove,cinnamon stick,bayleaf and fennel seeds instead of usual tempering spices, this will give definitely a fabulous masala flavour to this simple khichadi.
