Microwave Sabudana Khichadi

Before you guys pounce on me let me tell you this is not a diet food but it is a smart turn around food where in you reduce the amount of calories..

Sabudana khichadi has been my all time favorite. My sister makes amazing sabudana khichadi. She would cook everything in lots of ghee, fry the potatoes in ghee and then the sabudana.

When I was 74 kgs I would say no to this delicious dish. I told my sis 'once I touch 69 kgs I will surely have it'. Finally, I had this stuff when I touched 68 kgs. Awesome.

My husband observes full 9 day of fast during Navratri. Though he does try to go on only fruits but we all know how he is (don't we). So, in an attempt to get down the calorie content of this dish I tried the microwave version and it came out to be pretty good. This is how we eat sabudana khichadi now.

1. 1 cup sago seeds - Wash them with water and then drain. Just leave very little water. Leave overnight or 6-7 hours.

I am sure this won't come out to be like a dream but I guess would be eatable. Thanks for sharing the peanut tip, I will also keep it in mind. Infact it will be good to have little less oily peanuts.

Let me know how this version came out.

PS : Sabudana Khichadi is my favorite too.

Have a great day ahead.
