VEGETABLE MASALA KICHADI

Vegetable masala kichadi is a easy one pot dish, which is can be made in jiffy.

Sometimes I prepare one pot sambhar rice during lazy weekends.This recipe is little different from the sambhar rice. We can say it as fusion of vegetable pulao and sambhar rice J. But I must say it is really tastes great even with simple onion raita or fried papad/appalam or with any spice fries.

Ok now coming to this recipe,
