India's comfort food: Khechedi

Last night Jane asked Tiki, who is an outstanding cook, to teach her to make one of Jane's favorite foods, Khechedi (also spelled Khichadi, Khichdi, khichuri, khichari and many other ways).  Click here for an interesting article and great recipe for Khechedi.

As is common with outstanding cooks, they start off by saying that it's a very simple recipe.  But by the time they've finished, there are quite a number of ingredients and special tricks of the trade.  Such was the case with Tiki, so Jane documented the whole process.  In the end we enjoyed a delicious meal consisting of khechedi and stir-fried green beans (par-boiled first) with garlic.
