Home cooks in India often make Daliya Khichdi because it is a traditional, healthy food that everyone loves. The combination of lentils and cracked wheat (daliya) makes this dish an excellent choice for a light iftar during Ramadan, since it provides plenty of fibre, protein and slow-release energy. Vegetables in season not only add colour and freshness to your meal, but they also boost flavour and nutrients.
Perfect for those hectic days of Ramadan when time is of the essence and comfort and health go hand in hand, Daliya Khichdi is simple to make, easy to digest and soothing on the stomach after hours of fasting.
