Some kind of kichadi and some sort of chutney

Ok, I think these may be an actual recipe somewhere but I made them the easy way today.
The Kichadi
Ingredients

  • Equal parts of moong dhal and rice.
  • Jeera, Cinnamon and Butter for seasoning.
  • Green Chillies.
  • Ginger.

Recipe

  1. Heat the butter in a pan and add Cinnamon, Jeera.
  2. Add chopped ginger and green chillies
  3. Add the rice and moong dhal and stir fry in the butter in low heat.
  4. When the rice/dhal mix is fried enough, cook in a rice cooker with 2/2.5 parts of water.

The Chutney
Ingredients

  • Red Chillies 2/3 pieces.
  • Mustard, Urad and Chana Dhal and hing.
  • Tamarind Paste.
  • Jaggery and Neem powder (optional).

Recipe

  1. Heat some oil in a small pan and add mustard, red chillies and hing.
  2. Add the tamarind paste with some water and cook till the raw smell from tamarind goes away.
  3. If you happen to have jaggery or neem powder add that too. Gives it an interesting taste. You can add a bit of sugar instead of jaggery.
