It is the first day of Shravan (maas) month and I got request for fasting food for shravan maas, so here is my sabudana khichdi! My family is a big Bolenath beliver, Ahaan was born on the first Monday of Shravan month. We consider that very lucky!
I’m not a big fan of fasting food but sabudana khichdi is my fave, I can and do eat this without fasting. It’s simple to make but so good, I eat it with plain yogurt. Some people eat turmeric while fasting and some don’t. I added it because my mom always put it in hers and I love the taste and color of it. With or without it tastes just as good! If you are fasting this month, good luck!! Also don’t forget to try my sabudana vada recipe. Don’t forget to tag me if you make this @zheelicious #zheelicious 🙂
