Cooking Instructions for making Crispy Vegetable khichdi bonda
To begin making the Moong Dal Khichdi For Babies And Toddlers, add yellow moong dal and rice along with 1 cup water in a pressure cooker.Pressure cook the dal and rice for 3 whistles, reduce the flame to low and leave it for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, turn off the flame and let the pressure release naturally.
Meanwhile, in another pressure cooker, add the chopped carrots, beans, add 2 tablespoons water and pressure cook for 2 whistles. Turn off the heat and run the pressure cooker under cold water to release the pressure. This will ensure that the vegetables are cooked without losing it’s colour and nutrition. Next, place a kadhai on low heat and add ghee. Once the ghee melts, add jeera and allow it to crackle.
Once the jeera has crackled, add asafoetida and mix well into the ghee. Add cooked vegetables, cooked dal and rice khichdi along with a pinch of salt.Stir to combine the Khichdi. Turn off heat. Vegetable Khichdi is ready.
Take 1/3 cup water in a bowl.dip one bread slice in the water.just keep the bread in water and remove after 1 to 2 second just let the bread absorb the water. It should get samp but not overly. Otherwise the bread slice breaks.the idea is to make the bread moist enough so that it becomes pretty flexible which would make the rolling and shaping easier.
Press the bread between your palms so that the excess water is drained. Place the khichdi stuffing roll on one side of the moist bread slice.gently roll the bread and join the edges. Press the edges and seal them.
Heat oil for deep frying or shallow frying bread roll in a kadai. When the oil becomes medium hot, then add the bread roll. Do not over crowd the kadai. Add 3 to 4 bread rolls depending on the size of the kadai. Fry the bread roll till they become crisp and light golden in colour.
Then turn over each bread roll. Place the crispy bread roll on kitchen paper towels for extra oil to be absorbed. serve vegetable bhonda with tomato sauce or green chutney.
