Easy Khichdi Instant Pot | Ayurveda Comfort Food made w/ 4 Superfood Ingredients

Khichdi—pronounced kitch-er-ee— is a soothing stew made with basmati rice, lentils, ghee, spices, and sometimes vegetables, that has been revered as a healing food in India since ancient times for its wonderful virtue of being extremely easy to digest.

It also happens to be extremely tasty, as well as extremely easy to make. It is also extremely versatile. It can be made with different grains, different lentils, different spices, and with vegetable add-ins and toppings.

Meat isn’t needed in the meal because it is already a complete vegetarian protein.
