Ingredients Serving: 2

  1. 200 grams or 1 ⅓ cups grated Suran or Elephant foot yam or Jimikand
  2. 2 cups Water for soaking
  3. 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  4. Cumin seeds 1/2 tsp
  5. 1/2 tsp sesame seeds
  6. 50 grams or ¼ cup coarsely ground Peanuts
  7. A very small piece (a size of a clove) Cinnamon stick
  8. 2 cloves
  9. Salt , to taste
  10. sugar (optional)
  11. 1 tbsp lemon juice
  12. 2 teaspoons Desiccated coconut
  13. Coriander leaves

Instructions

  1. Apply oil in your hands to avoid irritation and itchy feeling on your hands while handling Jimikand. Cut a piece of suran or jimikand and peel its skin.
  2. Grate the yam and soak the grated pieces in a bowl of water till we use it for cooking. This will prevent it from getting black.
  3. In a wok add some oil and when the oil is hot enough add cumin seeds and sesame seeds and wait for them to crackle for a few seconds.
  4. Add chopped green chillies and pounded peanuts. toss the peanuts till they have got some colour. Do not burn it.
  5. Add grated yam and salt. Mix everything and let it cook uncovered for 6-8 minutes.
  6. Add ground cinnamon and cloves and combine. Since its a gujarati Recipe you may like to add a little sugar to it. I am not fond of it so gave it a pass. Turn the flame off.
  7. Add juice of lemon and mix thoroughly, this will prevent the itchy feeling when you eat it and overall makes the khichdi delicious. Garnish with fresh Coriander Leaves and grated fresh Coconut.
  8. Serve hot with fresh plain curd and falahari Dhaniya Chutney. Its the most fulfilling vrat or fast recipe and can be made in no time.
