Rice Flour Khichu

Rice Flour Khichu, a traditional Guajarati evening snack recipe made from steamed rice flour. Rice Flour Khichu is a simple, easy to made, spicy, delicious and healthy. Gujarat is known for its many snacks, but this is a treat to the palate even while being friendly to the stomach! This steamed rice flour street food is very famous in Gujarat. Who say only Maggie Noodles is an instant hunger relief food, this dish, khichu is also instant and far batter, healthier than Maggie Noodles.

Rice Flour Khichu or Khichiyu also called Papdi No Lot, is a dough for making Papad, however owing to its taste it is also consumed as Farsan (snack/breakfast). I grew up where making khichu in the breakfast is very common. Different flours are used for variations such as Jowar, Bajara, Makai or Makki.

Tips:

• When adding rice flour in boiling water, stir it continuously otherwise it will make lumps in a mixture.
• If you want Khichu without garlic then just skip the garlic from tempering.
• You can also sprinkle 2-3 pinch of Chaat masala while serving.

Achari Dahi Bhindi ‘Achari’ means pickling whi Achari Dahi Bhindi
‘Achari’ means pickling which is made using a mix of spices. So, we are using pickle masala in this recipe but very less which making this dish flavorful and unique.
There are of course regional variations of Achari dishes. And most popular vegetables are cauliflower, potatoes, okras, etc… yogurt and tomatoes are being added to Achari Sabji which give a double-tangy flavor to curry. It is also perked up with a wide assortment of seeds and spice powders, which give it a super peppy flavor and aroma too.
