Why vegetable khichdi calorie numbers differ
Vegetable khichdi is rice and moong dal cooked soft together with spinach, carrot and curd, finished with butter. The rice-to-dal ratio and the butter or ghee poured on top move the calories, and a runny khichdi holds less per bowl than a thick, sticky khichdi. Note any extra ghee you add at the table.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 13% of the calories in 1 bowl of vegetable khichdi.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 250 g per bowl. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
