Julia: आपको खिचड़ी बनानी आती है?

Sarika: हाँ, खिचड़ी तो बहुत आसान नुस्खा है - लेकिन प्रेशर कुकर की ज़रुरत होती है।

Julia: अच्छा मैं खरीद लुंगी । कैसे बनाते हैं?

Sarika: पहले मूंग दाल और चावल मिलाकर, पानी में भिगोकर रखते हैं । प्रेशर कुकर में थोड़ी सी घी में जीरा और हींग गरम करते हैं । फिर प्रेशर कुकर में पानी, हल्दी और नमक के साथ उबालकर पकाते हैं - बस।

Julia: इन सब की मात्राएं कितनी हैं?

Sarika: जितना चावल लेंगे, उसका आधा मूंग दाल। हल्दी थोड़ा सा - आधा छोटा चम्मच, और नमक थोड़ा सा - स्वाद अनुसार। और इनको चार सीटी तक उबालते हैं।

Sarika: Yes, khichdi is actually a very easy recipe—but you need a pressure cooker to make it.
