Sago Khichdi | Sabudana Khichdi

Method:

1. Soak Sago in water for atleast 3-4 hours. First wash the sago thoroughly under running water at least twice or thrice.  Add 2 teaspoon of water and mix well. Cover the sago vessel with a lid. Every 30 minutes, sprinkle little water and toss the sago well and set it aside. Repeat this sprinkling process till 6 hours.  We can take a single pearl and press it between the fingers, if the pearl gets mashed, Sago is ready. 

2. Boil 2 potatoes, peel and cube them roughly and set it aside. Heat a pan and roast peanuts for 2 minutes. Grind these roasted peanuts to a coarse powder. I generally take a spoon full of roasted peanuts separately which i would add at the time of seasoning and grind the rest of the peanuts. But this is completely optional. 
3. In a mixing bowl, add soaked sago, coarsely ground peanuts, sugar and salt and mix well and set it aside

4. Heat ghee in pan and add cumin seeds. When the cumin seeds starts to sputter, add hing,  chopped green chilli and curry leaves and saute it for 20 seconds

5. Then add mashed potatoes and mix well. Add sago-peanut mixture and toss well. 

6. Add Grated Ginger and keep this Khichdi in medium flame for 5 minutes. 


7. Finally add lemon juice and garnish with coriander leaves

8. Delicious Sago Khichdi ready to serve!
