Guest guest Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Jodie, Here's a recipe for Kitcheree, which is an easily digested soup. You may adjust the herbs and ingredients according to you taste and dosha. We use coriander seeds and cumin as seasonings Add 1/2 cup of mung beans to 16 cups of filtered water. Boil the mung beans first for about 10 minutes, then add: 1 cup thoroughly washed basmati rice, 1 finely chopped onion, 5 to 7 cloves of sliced or chopped garlic, 1 teaspoon peeled and chopped ginger root, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoom ground black pepper, 3/4 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes, 1/2 teaspoon cumin or the indian spice garam masala (optional). Boil covered over low flame (covered) 30 to 40 minutes until very soft and soupy. Then add 1 or 2 cups of any chopped vegetables, preferably green, like asparagus, broccoli, swiss chard, celery, zucchini. You can also add carrots. Optional: during cooking, add 1/2 to 1 cup ghee(clarified butter or olive oil) Braggs liquid aminos (similar to tamari). A few sprigs of fresh mint or cilantro cooked in with all the vegetables is really good. So is adding a little fresh basil.
