Notes
- The porridge mix powder keeps well for 4 months in room temperature itself.
- This khichdi thickens with time so switch off accordingly.
- Add more water as it takes sometime for the millets to cook as with rice.
- I didn’t sieve as the mixture is coarse.
- You can even add any vegetables with this.I usually feed this khichdi along with the poriyal we make for us.
