- ½ Cup Vermicelli (Semiya) 1 Cup - 250ml
- ½ Cup Semolina (Sooji / Rava)
- 1 Onion Finely Chopped
- 1 Tomato Finely Chopped
- 1 Cup Mixed Vegetables Beans, Carrot, Potato, Peas
- 4 Cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust As Needed
- 1 teaspoon Ghee
- 1 tablespoon Coriander Leaves
For Tempering
- 2 tablespoon Oil
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon Split Bengal Gram (Channa Dal / Kadalaparuppu)
- 3 Green Chili
- Few Curry leaves
Dry Roasting Process
Heat a heavy bottomed pan. Add semiya and dry roast till its light brown. Its always better to roast the semiya even if you got the roasted semiya from shop. Take this roasted Semiya aside
In the same pan, add rava and dry roast till its light brown. Take this roasted rava aside
Tempering Process
Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and allow it to sputter. Then add the split bengal gram and fry till light brown
Next, add chopped green chili and few curry leaves, give a mix
Prepare Kichadi
Add onions to the pan and saute the onions till translucent. Next, add tomatoes and give a mix
To the pan, add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for a minute
Next, add 4 cups of water to the pan. Stir well. Add the necessary salt and give a good mix
Bring to water to rolling boil. When the water starts to boil, add the roasted vermicelli and rava slowly and stir continously till they are combined with the water completely without any lumps
Close the pan and cook the kichadi in low flame till all the water is absorbed and the rava and semiya are cooked completely
- Add ginger while tempering. Its good for digestion.Â
- Adjust water according to the consistency of the kichadi you need. Generally the kichadi is little sticky than upma. Thats why I added 4 cups, but if you want like crumbly texture, you can limit the water to 3 cups.
