Steps

1

Take 2/3 cup rice and 1/3 cup moong dal in a bowl.Wash them in water for 3-4 times.
2

Drain and transfer them to pressure cooker (3-5 liter capacity). Add turmeric powder, 3½-cups water and salt. Mix well and taste the water for salt; add more if required. If you like very soft khichdi (like thick gravy), add 4 cups water.
3

Close the lid of pressure cooker and cook for 4 whistles (1st whistle on high flame and remaining 3 whistles on medium flame).
4

Turn off the flame and let the steam pressure comes down naturally. It will take around 8-10 minutes. If you do not wait and open the lid immediately, khichdi may remain uncooked. Carefully open the lid, add ghee and mix well. Moong Dal Khichdi is ready, serve it with gujarati kadhi and papad.
