Dal Kichri Recipe | Khichdi | Kedgeree | Khichri


Rice is a staple food in most parts of India so is in Kokan. Kokanis prefer rice in lunch and roti for dinner but it is a norm to eat dopeher ka bacha you chawal (leftover rice from lunch) in dinner and siblings literally fight for it haha..

Kokanis prefer curry or salan with rice and stir fried of  dry gravies with roti. A typical kokni lunch consists of i) White Rice, Fish Haldoni (Salan), Baghar ki Dal, Fried Fish, Papad and Achaar (Loncha)
ii) Khichri, Prawns or Fish Curry, A Sabzi, Dahi, Papar, Achaar
iii) Bagara or Narli Rice, Meat or Chicken Curry, Bhindi/Baingan or any other sabzi, imli or aam ka murabba and papar

All these typical traditional meal combinations are delish and wholesome if you can control your portions lol.

You can see my plate of khichri with my favourite sides. Papad and achaar are missing though.


Humble Kichri with a dollop of taaza ghee (desi ghee/clarified butter) and a piece of fried fish is a all you need no matter what day it is!
