Hi,
I prepared ur version of DalKichdi and am right now eating it and typing feedback ...indeed its a one dish meal and nonetheless tasty and easy to make. I instead of adding chilli pd and garam masala, added home-made sambar pd, and also added potato and green peas.
Thanks for the recipe!! Why don't u invent some more of such one dish meal..?? :))
