Millet khichdi - add diversity to the grains you consume

I get very excited when I am able to feed something healthy to my toddler son. He has been enjoying eating this millets khichdi.
Its a good grain replacement for the regular rice based khichdi. You can use any millet rice to make it. I used barnyard millet, also called vrat ke chawal or sama rice. You can also add mixed veggies to it.
This is a great way to add diversity to the grain intake of kids....adults too ;-), else we keep eating only wheat & rice which is highly processed these days!! Try & let me know how it was.
Ingredients
Millet rice - 1 cup
Moong dal - 1/2 cup
Water - 5 to 6 cups
Red chilli - 1 or 2
Mustard seeds - 1/2 to 1 tsp
Curry leaves - 10 to 15
Cold pressed oil - 1 to 2 tbsp
Onion - 1
Rock salt - 1 tsp or as per taste
Haldi - 1/2 tsp
Method
Take a pan. Make tadka with oil, curry leaves, red chilli, mustard seeds and onion.
Wash millet rice and dal thoroughly. Put them in a pressure cooker, add water and give 3-4 whistles.
Add tadka to cooker and khichdi is ready.
