At home, we don't always cook with expensive items. Sometimes we make interesting dishes with whatever is at hand or with few items. I have made a delicious Khichuri as per the instructions of the respected teacher, Suboohi.
Before starting to prepare Khichuri, I would like to introduce its ingredients. Below I am presenting the ingredients for Khichuri made with chickpeas-
👨🍳Ingredients to make the Chickpeas khichuri
| Item Name | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Rice | 500 grams |
| Chickpeas | 400 grams |
| Ginger-garlic paste | 4 tablespoons |
| Turmeric powder | 2 tablespoons |
| Chili powder | 2 tablespoons |
| Salt | as desired |
| Garlic powder | 1 tablespoon |
| Onion | 3 pieces |
| Cloves | 3 pieces |
| Cardamom | 2 pieces |
| Bay leaves | 3 pieces |
| Green chilies | 5 pieces |
Now I will make delicious Khichuri using the above ingredients, and I have presented its tutorial below-
👨🍳Tutorial to make the Chickpeas Khichuri
👨🍳Step 1:-
- The main ingredient of today's Khichuri is lentils. Chickpeas need to be soaked for a long time to cook well. So I soak 400 grams of boiled lentils for 4-5 hours before starting cooking. This will help the cooking process be completed quickly. Before cooking, I wash the chickpeas well and let them drain.
- Now, to make khichuri, I take 500 grams of rice, wash it well with clean water, and let it drain.

👨🍳Step 2:-
- Now I take 3 onions and chop them finely and keep them in a bowl.
- Now I put a pan on the stove. I add soybean oil as required. I wait until the oil is hot, then I add the chopped onions.
When the onions are fried, I add ginger-garlic paste and fry them again.

Hi @shahid76 for making the kichuri for yourself, i just feel like i am making it for myself, you made it all so amazing, i like it and keep it up.
You have presented the entire process of cooking khichuri with chickpeas very beautifully. It is clear from your recipe that such a nutritious dish can be prepared with simple spices and ingredients available at home. Especially the tip of soaking the chickpeas for 4-5 hours in advance is quite effective in saving cooking time. In my opinion, there are very few better options than khichuri in the list of healthy and satisfying meals for four people on a low budget. This right combination of rice and chickpeas not only enhances the taste of the dish but also increases its nutritional value. The cost calculation and step-by-step descriptions have made the entire post much clearer. Best wishes to you in this contest. 😊
Hay gente que sabe vestirse y gente que simplemente se pone ropa. Vos sabés hacer lo primero.
A good budget meal does not need a long list of expensive ingredients, and this khichuri is a nice example of that. I liked how you used rice and chickpeas as the main ingredients and built the flavor with onions, ginger, garlic and spices. The 4–5 hour soaking of the chickpeas was also a useful detail for anyone trying this at home.
The step-by-step pictures make the recipe easier to follow too. I especially enjoyed seeing how everything came together before the final serving. By the time I reached the last picture, I was already thinking about food 😂. The fact that most of the ingredients were already available at home makes the budget idea even better.
One small observation: in Step 1, you mentioned "lentils" a few times even though the recipe is based on chickpeas. Using "chickpeas" consistently would make that part clearer for readers who want to follow the recipe exactly.
You did a nice job connecting the recipe with the challenge theme, especially the idea of making something tasty without spending extra money. Sometimes the food sitting quietly in the kitchen can surprise us more than the expensive stuff at the market. 😄
@max-pro sir, thank you so much for visiting my post and giving your valuable support.
Thank you very much for sharing this special cooking method with this special rice and chickpeas combination through your beautiful and interesting skills. Moreover, the interesting method of onion and chili is really interesting as part of this new skill. Moreover, I am very happy to know that you can cook a beautiful dish even in a lot of wheat in the special price. By making this special affordable food at a low cost, you have shown that it is beautiful and we can eat delicious food at a low cost. However, there is a significant difference in the price. Anyone who sees this special cooking skill can easily make it at a low cost. I always wish you success here, thank you.
