- Take a pan and pour coconut oil. Splutter mustard seeds and add red chillies and curry leaves. Pour it over the curd mixture.
- Close the kichadi with lid for 5 minutes for the flavor.
- Serve with rice or rice items.
- Note: 1)No cooking in fire required except to fry kondattam and kaduku varuval. 2)You can avoid kaduku varuval and pour some fresh coconut oil over the top and close the lid.
