Method

  1. Wash rice and moong Dal. Take combi pan, add rice, dal, water, and turmeric to the combi pan. Slide the pan into Level 1 in the Ninja Combi.
  2. Move the SmartSwitch to Cooker, select combi meal function, set temperature 240°C465°F and time (the unit will steam for before cooking).
  3. Once cooking done give it tadka by using additional ingredients for making it more flavorful.

    Our tip Heat the ghee in a small pan, add the mustard seeds and, once they pop, the ginger; pour it over and stir in the salt. Khichdi sets as it stands, so loosen it with a little hot water before serving.
