Now add, whole red chillies, tomatoes and salt, stir & cook until the tomatoes turn mushy.
Further lower the flame & add powdered spices and mix well, add little hot water to avoid the burning of the spices.
To make it taste like restaurant, you can do a small step, just increase your flame to high and tilt the pan a little bit, doing this pan would catch fire and the khichdi will get the smoky flavour, now add the cooked dal and rice, stir and cook for 2-3 minutes.
After cooking the dal & rice with the tadka if you feel the khichdi is little thick, you can add little hot water to adjust the consistency.
Now add the mango powder, kasuri methi, lemon juice and freshly chopped coriander greens. Stir & cook for a minute, your restaurant style dal khichdi is ready.
To elevate its flavour, serve it by pouring a fresh tadka, for fresh 2nd tadka, heat a pan, add ghee and let it heat, further add whole red chillies, stir briefly and switch off the flame, add hing, red chilli powder and brista, pour this immediately over the hot dal khichdi.
Your restaurant style dal khichdi is ready, serve hot with some papad & some salads.
