Winters demand comfort food and what better than a bowl of khichado. This is similar to a khichdi, sans the rice, and a traditional delicacy during Uttarayan or Makar Sankranti in Gujarat. This multigrain version of the khichdo is a one pot meal, packed with nutrients that can keep you full all day without compromising on taste. Since it is heavy to digest, it is best had during lunch hours. Ingredients like cumin seeds and spices are added to aid digestion.
