Recipe Notes
  • Wash sabudana properly after soaking it for all small lumpy sabudana to be washed off. Otherwise it will resuly sticky khichdi.
  • You may no need to microwave potatos before frying, you can directly fry in ghee untill cooked. It will just take more time and consume more ghee for potatos to be cooked.
  • After adding lemon leave the covered pan for 4-5 minutes so that the aroma of lemon mix well with sabudana and the steam inside will result fluffy sabudana.
  • If you are serving to kids adjust chili and salt as per their tolerance.
