Kitchari is a simple one-pot dish of rice and split mung beans, spiced gently — Ayurveda's go-to "reset" meal because it is easy to digest and nourishing. It is food, not medicine; enjoy it as part of a balanced diet.
Why kitchari
The combination of rice and split mung dal is tri-doshic (suits most constitutions), and the warm, soft texture is gentle on Agni (digestive fire). It is a common choice for a light day or a seasonal reset.
Ingredients
Basmati rice, split yellow mung dal, ghee or oil, and warming spices — cumin, coriander, turmeric, ginger — with seasonal vegetables to taste.
A note
Adjust spices and vegetables to your constitution and the season. This is everyday cooking, not a cleanse or a cure.
