Savory Rice with Lentil Curry - Khichuri

We made this tonight and it was absolutely delicious! This has everything I love about Indian food. The flavors are bold and vibrant but blend so well together, the warmth and texture are like comfort food, and the dish is quite healthy. If you like split pea or lentil soup, you should definitely give this a try some night instead. We served this with an Indian flavored, sauteed swai (similar to catfish or tilapia) and artichokes, but it could easily be a stand alone dish.
