Dodkyacha Bhaat
Dodkyacha Bhaat is neither a khichdi nor a pulao, but it has a very homely and satiating flavour! A Maharashtrian preparation of rice and ridge gourd perked up with common spices and pastes, Dodkyacha Bhaat is very easy to prepare and very tasty too. Sautéing the rice gives a good aroma and also prevents it from clumping up. It is important to add the ingredients at the right time, in the right order, so that the flavours are absorbed well into the rice and vegetables. When you feel a little indulgent, add a dollop of ghee to the hot rice just before having it.
