Mung Dal is the basic khichri I know. This is the most simplest and easiest Khichri recipe. Whenever I feel lazy or unwell, this recipe works as magic. There is a saying that "khichri ke char Yaar- dahi, papad, ghee, achar" and when served with this combination, no other food can beat this deshi lunch/dinner. These days during lockdown this food has become my favourite and has been included in regular menu.
