      I have made a north Indian style urad dal khichdi before and remember enjoying it very much. I can imagine how flavorful this dish must have been with the addition of dried ginger, garlic and coconut.

      I like that the Dal is double the quantity of rice. I have never attempted with Black Dal and this looks like a healthy one pot meal.

      very unique and a new dish to me.. very delicious and healthy too ! i think garlic is to balance out the dal quanitiy and rduce any flatuelence. Can I serve this with Raita. Sharmi ?
