  1. Place the khichri in a large mixing bowl and knead till you have soft dough like Khichri texture. To this softened Khichri add the spices, paste sesame seeds and chopped coriander, salt, sugar. Mix well.

  5. Carefully roll 1/4" thick round Moogdi.
  6. Heat a griddle/tawa, spread some oil and place the rolled Moogdi.
  7. Flip once it has some light brown spots and cook on the other side.
  8. Spread a teaspoon of oil on each side and around to shallow fry the Moogdi.
  9. Once both sides are have light brown spots, remove from griddle and repeat with another one until you have rolled and shallow fried each moogdi.

Notes

Take care that the khichri will have salt and turmeric so add accodingly. I have used Jowar flour to make these Moogdi. You may use Bajra or Atta anything works well.
