When the world around you is changing suddenly, a simple, quick and nutritious meal can help. Here's three different variations of Daliya khichdi (for babies, for the elderly and the sick, and for everyone else) by Nisha Madhulika:

I made slight changes, and made this:
Wash and soak about 1/4 cup of yellow moong daal. In a small pressure cooker, heat 1 tsp ghee, add 1/4 cup broken wheat (or daliya, or fada), and saute till they become fragrant (about a minute). Add the soaked daal, about 2 cups of water, salt and turmeric powder. Add some sliced carrots and some peas, close the pressure cooker, and cook for 3-4 whistles on medium/low heat. Once the pressure is released, mash slightly with a serving spoon. In a small tadka pan, heat a tsp of ghee, add 1/2 tsp cumin seeds and a pinch of hing, and add to the khichdi. Serve in a bowl with another 1/2 tsp ghee. Hey, remember the comfort part?
