Sabudhana Kichadi - submitted by Dahlia on 01-03-2008 (Javarisi Upma, Chowwary Uppuma, Sago Salad)
Ingredients Sabudhana (Javarisi, sago) - 1 cup Roasted Peanuts - 1/2 cup (coarsely powdered) Potato - 1 (cut into small pieces) - You can also use 1/4 cup of other chopped vegetables like carrot, capsicum , green peas etc Onion - 1/2 (sliced) Salt - to taste Oil/Ghee - 1 tblsp Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp Curry leaves - 6 Green chillies - 2-3 (finely chopped) Cilantro - handful
 Method 1. Wash the sago and soak it overnight (or atleast 2 hours). Before using the sago, wash and drain for 2-3 times to get rid of the extra strach. 2. Heat oil in a pan, temper mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Add chopped onions, green chillies and curry leaves and toss them for a few minutes. 3. Next add the potato pieces (and/or other vegetables of you choice). Cover and cook till it is completely cooked. 4. You can add a pinch of turmeric powder if you like the kichadi to have a nice yellow colour. This is optional. 5. Next add the sago and required salt. Mix everything, reduce the heat and cook it covered for about 3 minutes. No water is needed. The water that the sago must have absorbed duing soaking is sufficient to cook it. 6. Add the peanut powder and mix everything. Increase the heat and keep tossing for another 2 minutes. 7. Finally add chopped cilantro, mix and switch off. Tips - Coconut lovers can add handful of grated coconut at the end instead of cilantro.

Comment by sree nidhi should potatoes be boiled before adding to it Reply :- No, I usually add raw potatoes, cook it and then add the sabudhana. But you can also add boiled potatoes. |

Comment by gurvinder aur hi, i have seen the receipe of sabudana kichdi but i am not able to know the amt of water to be added while cooking kichadi ,is it just like we cook rice plz help me out. thanks. Reply :- You don't have to add any water. The sabudhana must have absorbed water while soaking which is enough for cooking. If you feel the kichadi is getting dry, just sprinkle little water. |

Comment by RITA RODRIGUES on 17 August 2009 17:48PM Hi, thks for such simple Receipie, Can I use small sabudhana's, if yes then what is the qty of water to be added, becoz I had once tried and did not come out nice, pls let me know. Thks once again for such good receipies in your website. Reply :- Hi rita, If you soak the sabudhana well, it would have absorbed enough water. In that case just a few sprinkles would be enough. Keep on low flame, cover and cook for few minutes. Then fluff it. I think it should be perfect. |
