1/2 tspn turmeric powder
1/2 a tspn asafoetida
few curry leaves
Ingredients to be used later
1 bunch of moringa leaves cleaned and washed
1 bunch of garlic chives, cleaned and chopped, the garlic from it separated and kept intact
Few coriander sprigs cleaned and chopped

Method
In a pan take olive oil, add the garlic cloves you got from the chives, let it turn golden, add chopped chillies, saute a bit, add the chives, coriander and the moringa leaves, saute till they change colour, now add the rice, salt, the lime juice and mix well. The porridge or khichdi is now ready to be served with either crispies or pickle or even as it is with a dash of clarified butter.
