About Mug kichri
Mug Kichri is a comforting, one-pot dish rooted in Indian subcontinent cuisine, often enjoyed as a staple meal. Made primarily with split green gram (moong dal) and rice, this dish is gently spiced with turmeric, cumin, and ghee, and occasionally enhanced with vegetables like carrots or spinach. A soft, porridge-like consistency makes Mug Kichri easy to digest, making it a popular choice for those recovering from illness or seeking light nourishment. Rich in plant-based protein from lentils, it also provides essential amino acids when paired with rice, creating a wholesome complete protein. Turmeric adds anti-inflammatory properties, while ghee contributes healthy fats. Mug Kichri is relatively low in spices, making it gentle on the stomach but slightly caloric depending on the use of ghee or oil. A balanced combination of carbs, protein, and micronutrients makes it both nourishing and satisfying. It's an ideal dish for promoting gut health and energy.
