This creamy, delicious, grain-free version of an old Indian classic features yellow split mung dal blended with yellow potatoes, vegetables, ghee, and delectable Indian spices. Feel free to use vegetable broth, bone broth, or water, as desired. Pre-soaking the mung dal for 45 minutes to an hour helps to reduce the cooking time and make the kitchari even creamier. This will serve 2-4 people.
Sambar is a delicious, super-flavorful South Indian lentil soup made with vegetables and seasonings. It’s typically served with idlis, rice or dosas. There is no one way to make sambar, so feel free to experiment with your choice of veggies, lentils and seasonings. We are keeping it seasonal for summer with zucchini and tomato.
Kitchari is India’s most beloved comfort food; it’s also an important food for healing and supporting good digestion. While traditionally made with basmati rice, it can also be made with other grains. This hearty, delicious kitchari is made with sprouted quinoa, but regular quinoa will do fine.
