Ingredients: 1 cup rice, 1/4 cup of yellow moong dal, 1/4 cup toor dal, 1 cup mixed veg (i use frozen mix veg), 1 Bay leaf, 1 cinnamon stick, 1 tsp Coriander-Cumin powder,1 tsp, Garam masala, Salt per taste. Tempering: 3 tsp oil, Mustard seeds, pinch of asofoetida, turmeric powder, curry leaves, red chillies.

Saute for 2-3 mins. Add coriander cumin powder and garam masala. Add 3-4 cups water and pressure cook for a whistle (till its soft).

Came here through the combo round up..... Loved that platter... I had sent Kichdi too....... Your platter looks amazingly scrumptious!!!!! In particular I liked the kadhi instead of the plain dahi...... I would love to try that kadhi, hence saved it for my guiding source.....
