How to Prepare Gentle Morning Kitchari [Vegan]
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the mustard and cumin seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until the seeds begin to pop, about 2 minutes.
- Add the onion, carrots, and ginger and sauté for about 5 minutes, until the onion is tender and translucent.
- Stir in the rice, dal, turmeric, cloves, salt, pepper, broth, and water and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the lid, stir well, and then simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes, until the texture resembles porridge (for a soupier texture, decrease the cooking time, and for a thicker texture, cook it a bit longer).
- Taste and adjust the seasonings if desired. Serve with your toppings of choice.
