My mum used to make this. Now that she's bed ridden and has dementia, I made this for her. The way her face lit up when she ate it, was worth all the effort. Edit! Thank you all for your kind wishes. I just wanted to let you all know that she passed last year in January due to COVID.
I'm a Malaysian here looking for a khichuri recipe.. i still remember the first time I ate khichuri made by my uncle.. he actually worked for our fmly for 15 years now he has gone back to Bangladesh and i missed him and i remember when i was a child he always made this for our fmly especially when it's rainy days.. now is the raining season here in Malaysia so I'm looking up for the recipe, thank you so much dear for the recipe.. lots of love from Malaysia.. i hoped my uncle and his fmly will always be in God's protection and be blessed with good health 🥺❤
Prepared this khichudi today for dinner for my Malaysian friends. I’m not an experienced cook but thanks to the accuracy of your video instructions, I ended up cooking something incredible. They all loved it and as a bong host it filled my heart with joy to be able share my food and my culture with them. This would’ve never been possible without your accurate recipes. Thank you so much. Because of you a bong who never knew how to cook is now able to prepare mouth watering dishes to the delight of his guests. Keep sharing more and more authentic Bengali recipes and I hope I can share our food experiences with the world.
Certainly your video brings nostalgia and since particularly we celebrated Durga Puja at my home premises. Today I am married and stay in a different state although my love for bhoger kichuri / moong dal khichuri has never diminished .the process in which it is made at my home is slightly different than what you have mentioned but I m sure it too shall taste heavenly! Thank you for keeping the bong alive away from country !
I m Punjabi live Kolkata from childhood now half Bengali love to eat bhog kichuri and aloo dum .l hv try this kichuri recipe in Laxmi puja with niramish aloo dum and quantity bahut banaya tha but itna acha bana ki Kum par gaya thanka for this recipe.saraswati Puja is next week menu set, kichuri,aloo dum ,aam sato chutni, paresh,and husband dimand dokha dalna.🤤
Dear Bong Eats, Thanks so much for this recipe. Last week I got my first ever lot of gobindobhog rice (thanks to a bank manager who asked his parents in Cal to add it to the care package they were anyway sending him, which btw also had 2000 rupees worth of fresh hilsa!). When I opened the packet, I was blown away by the fragrance and decided the first recipe had to be a Bong Eats one. I followed every step and measurement down to the gram. At one point I wondered why I was taking this much effort over "just khichdi", but when it was finally ready and I had my first mouthful I could understand why it is considered a special treat. The flavour, the consistency, the aroma, the nuttiness... mmmmm this is definitely one of the top 10 dishes I've tried and been blown away by. Thanks so much for making it precise and easy.
Wow. We must first congratulate you for finding a bank that provides just that extra customer satisfaction. :D Yes, this khichudi is special and worth the extra effort to fry/roast everything separately. So glad you enjoyed it. :-)
bhog er khichuri hurls me down a lane laced with memories. the khichuri labra chutney and payesh would be in the same plate huddled in the warmth and love for each other and resulting in a unique satisfying taste. that came alive with this and thank you so much for all that you create.
Oh yes! Love eating the khichuri labra'r torkari, punctuated by some of the sweet chutney, or the creamy payesh. Add to that the smell of sal-leaf bowl. Thank you for leaving such a wonderful comment, Subarnasree! 💛
Is there some word in the dictionary which can describe the feeling that one has relished the dish by just seeing the beautiful visual imagery.... Trust me..I could taste it and relish it...so much so that I m inspired to make it for my sons nd self tomorrow itself... I just loved the recipe and moreso coz of the aesthetically designed presentation.... It brought back childhood memories of making khichudi for the big joint family of 20 with lots of khejur and tomato chutney nd papad with some maach bhaja...thank you so much... Appreciate your work...Kudos to the entire team...shall repost after making.
I just wanted to extend a massive heartfelt thanks for your videos. I live in Australia, and haven’t lived with my parents for over 10 years due to my studies. Watching your channel, reminds me of my favourite memories throughout my childhood, where I used to sit atop the kitchen bench, watching my mum cook delicious Bengali food for our family. When we visited our relatives back in Kolkata & Bardhaman, I loved watching my Didu and Thakuma cut up exotic vegetables with a 'boti' and crouch over the ovens in the ground, cooking these recipes, all of which are so close to my heart. I am now almost 30 and had given up on my ability to pass on these recipes to my future children however your channel has given me hope. The recipes taste exactly like what my mum and grandparents would make. Over the last month, I have been cooking a recipe from your channel each Sunday - it’s now one of my favourite weekend traditions. I am so thankful - and so is my Australian partner who now enjoys tasty Bengali food each weekend :)
Came across this upload very recently and (my wife) tried it last Sunday. Definitely tasted different and better compared to what we usually have. Got the flavour and aroma of Gobindobhog after a long time. Only one small point - this is not exactly "bhoger khichuri" which has a slightly different hue and taste. Perhaps the divine intervention was missing when we did it. Great job though!
This recipe was forwarded to me by my husband, who is inclined to Bengali cuisines and music. Love your attention to details, accuracy in measurement, overall love for the flavour of food , its Annam brahma !!!. Am definitely trying this recipe along with Brinjal crisps mostly with cold pressed groundnut oil.
Hi. Goes without saying its a fantastic recipe, my favourite bhoger kichudi. I also want to add from bottom of my heart, your cooking and the flavour, taste every thing reminds me of my moms cooking, who is no more. Everytime I see an item and replicate it i get the same taste as her cooking. Thanks to both of you for giving me the chance to relive those days when she used to make all my favourite dishes. I actually do not have much words to Express my gratitude. Hope you understand. Wishing you all the best.
My Maa is an excellent cook . She not only makes dishes tasty but also healthy. And let me tell you that I am a big...... fan of her Khichuri which she makes with love & adds dalia & lots of veggies. So it's on fire all the time ☺☺
You’re videos are hands down the absolute best cooking videos around .. so very soothing to watch in the era of Tasty - style minute long videos . I feel I am taken back to my moms, dida’s old world style of cooking with love and patience which no wonder resulted in food you dream of for years . Thanks so much , can’t wait to recreate them all in my own time .
When you live all alone in a far away city and watch this video.. Well it makes you miss home.. Miss Kolkata.. Miss all the good old pujo days with Maayer haather bhoger khichdi so damn much! Your videos are so damn amazing!
Today I made khichuri, following your recipe. I just can’t believe how you guys have turned our simple food into such an exquisite dish!!! Khichuri has a very special place in my heart. It connects me with my late “thamma” and my school, Brahmo Girls’... I still go to school on 31st Jan to participate in our “Praktoni” meet and eat khichuri with my childhood friends 🥰 Stay blessed 😇😊 Stay safe
I tried it today and it tastes awesome....My house was filled with the mouth watering aroma of the khichuri and my mind was flooded with the childhood memories when we relished this taste. Thanks!!
I have been making khichuri bhog for kojagori lokhi pujo since the last 15 years so its lovely to see this video but we do not add coconut . Secondly we add the tempering at the end gives it an awesome smell and flavor. Nowadays its difficult to find orginal gobindo bhog especially if ur not based in Kolkata so it is best to pressure cook the dal for about one whistle and then add to rice else rice becomes overcooked and the dal remains uncooked.
I dont understand why are people not liking this video ..302 dislikes ...like why?...This channel is so amazing. ..In my opinion the best channel😘Even though i am not bengali ,i love all these dishes🙂😍😍
Until few months ago, I wasn't much of a regular cook. But after lockdown I had to cook often as my mother often remained sick. She was suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease since 2016. I had such a hard time seeing her suffer. She would hardly eat, she was losing her appetite gradually. I tried my best to make every meal tasty for her, considering her renal diet. I followed this recipe of khichudi for lunch, though not exactly (as I had to cut down certain ingredients), and she liked it. And it was the last meal I prepared that she ate at home. She had to be taken to the hospital that very evening as her health was getting worse during those days. She passed away few weeks later on May 20 of this year, leaving me devastated. I am a single child, and the closest to mum, so I can say destiny hit me hard. I'm still struggling to cope with her loss. When this recipe popped up on my recommendations after 5 months of her passing, I couldn't help but write down my emotions. I still remember her faint smile, as she acknowledged that I have made a good khichuri. Thanks bong eats :)
So sorry for your loss 🙏 I can't even begin to imagine what losing a Mother would be like, I know I would be devastated as well. May you find strength 🙏
I am not fond of cooking. But when you get a sudden urge of eating khichuri in the freezing cold temperature of New York, you have no other options but to cook it yourself. I searched for a lot of recipes, but Bong Eats struck a chord with me. The clear instructions, precise ingredient measurements, and that beautiful sound effect - all of these made a perfect recipe video. Hats off to you guys for your passion, and trust me it really shows in these beautifully crafted videos in your channel. And bdw my khichuri turned out to be great, thanks again for this amazing receipe.!!
I recreated this only without coconut and peas as these were not available..and this was my first take on khichuri. It came off really well and I was flooded with compliments from ma and baba. Thank you Bongeats.. I will definitely try more of your recipes. P.S. : Saptarshi, I am your junior from South Point, :-) also Insiya, I have done my Masters from J.U 😃
Sarswati pooja ke din hamare college ka bhog yaad आ gaya ,yumm,aap ek bahut hi paerfect cook hai itni perfection maine aaz tak kisi me nahi dekha,dhero shubhkamnao sahit aap jaha rahe kushal rahe
Bhog er khichuri is❤️ and being brought up in West Bengal, I miss the Ashtami Khichuri more. I would wait all the year for it. Just loved the way you cooked.. will definitely try this out!😊
One of the best presentation seen ever. Please post more. I am a professional chef running a Indian restaurant from more than 10 years. I could not have done better than this. Khub bhalo.
pujor bhoger gorom gorom khichuri labra aloor dom chatney and PAYESH ... if comfort food ever needs any definition then that is definitely these foods , at least in a bengali's heart . i am salvating even just looking at the ingredients ... i can literally smell the khichuri right now .... love your videos ... thank you for making all these videos ...believe it or not my heart is totally satisfied by just only looking at this video and listening to the background music !!!
Thank you, Anannya for the wonderful comment. The Bengali khichuri is truly a dish that is comforting and grand at the same time. শেষে একটু চাটনি, আর পায়েস হলে কোনো কোথায় নেই।
Hi yesterday I tried this wit normal cooking rice taste is awesome really me and my husband enjoyed a lot this is first time tried Bengali recipes really it Gud next time I will prepare wit jeera sambha rice
While Jeera samba rice will be good but i would definitely recommend to use Govinda Bhog rice for this recipe. These days you will find Govinda Bhog rice in all major cities in India. (you can also find it in online grocery sites). This rice has a very distinct and unique sweet aroma (different from Basmati or Jeera samba) which works excellent for this dish.
Had tried this earlier but with lesser ingredients. Made it again today, following all your instructions. Turned out amazing. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Thanks also for the tips you generally share.
Love how artistically this video has been filmed. Felt like I was watching a movie. As a video journalist, I have seen and created many recipe videos and I really admire whoever filmed this. Great work!
Bong eats, I just love every recipe of yours.... I am 4 months pregnant, because of which all food makes me nauseas.... But trust me when I say this... Your Khichuri, egg curry, steamed prawns in mustard sauce almost all recipes are making me hungry....Thank you so much for all your lovely recipes ❤️
This music!! It always takes me to the period of Tagore. So soothing and peaceful music. And the food 🥘 oh i am sorry can’t explain my expression enough.too yammy
আমি একজন গ্রামের বাসিন্দা খিচুড়ি খেতে আমরা সবাই ভীষণ ভালোবাসি আর তোমাদের রান্না গুলো এতটাই সুন্দর এবং অতি সাধারন যে আমাদের বুঝতে এবং বানাতে কোন অসুবিধা হয় না তার থেকেও বড় ব্যাপার সাধারণের মধ্যে ও অসাধারণ কিছু টিপস তোমরা ব্যবহার করেই থাকো আমার ভীষণ ভালো লাগে মাঝে মাঝে মনে হয় তোমার বাড়ি গিয়ে তোমাদের এই রান্না গুলো সব খেয়েছি চলে আসি ভালো থেকো এভাবেই রান্না করে যাও আর যা যা রান্না করবে সব আমাদের দেখাবে অনেক অনেক অনেক অনেক অনেক ধন্যবাদ
I made khichuri for the first time and everyone was in praise , even my mom who is super particular abt food ...thank you for all the help as I try to help my mom ❤️ very new to cooking in general 😉
I tried this recioe on the occasion of (Bengali) laxmi puja. It really came out great. It was my first attempt with khichudi. This recipe was worth the try! I just added carrots as an extra vegetable. Keep up the good job! 🤗
Please do try it, Anusuya. The kochuri, and alu'r marvellous torkari are definitely in our list. BTW, really liked the videos on your channel! Why did you stop?
এত clean রান্নার video অনেক দিন বাদে দেখলাম। কোন ভিডিও এডিটর এ এডিট করেছেন? রান্না টিও বুঝতেই পারছি অতি সুস্বাদু হবেই। ধন্যবাদ বাংলার delicacy কে এতো delicately present করার জন্য।
Bhoger kichuri occupies a special place in our Bengali cuisine especially the ones which are served during Durga Puja in the pandals 😋😋😋 uff ho just amazing ❤️❤️👍

Today I prepared the voger khichuri. It's lovey... I also prepared labra and chatni as per bong eats recipe. whit hout these combination Astami is not completed. We feel that emotion when we follow your recepi . Thank you so much Bong eats.
Dear Bong eats whenever I watch your every video, I don't know why I can't control my "khide". The way you guys are present your video, its superb. All the very Best for upcoming videos.
Khichurir sathe go-mangsho ,ektu amrar achar r dim vaji ...first class dish... Aahhh!!!!😍go-mansher bodoley ilish vaja o darun combination gorte pare😏😉❤️
I cooked this exactly as per measurements specified in the video, khichuri turned out really good. My entire family was so satisfied after eating this. Amazing work guys! I’m a big fan of everything you do. Right from presentation to the authenticity of the dish.
Iv tired few dishes of your and it was absolutely amazing. Being a hard core Kolkata food lover I really appreciate your cooking style which brings back all the memories of the smell and taste. Miss Kolkata. Thank you
Lokhi pujor din khichudi baniyechi apnader recipe follow kore.barite besh kichu non Bengali friends asechilo. Tarao khub bhalo kheyeche bhog khichudi. R amr husband o kał k obdi rekhe rekhe khelo. Onek gulo Recipe dekhe ETA chose korechilam and the result was fantastic. Keep inspiring us.
thankyou soo much...my mother was a fantastic cook....I have a lots to learn about cooking...even cooking this recipe made me feel close to her...great job you guys are doing....love it
I check in here every time before making Khichuri just to make sure. Tomorrow is Saraswati Pujo, so kitchen duty has fallen upon me as usual and I'm gonna follow this recipe like always🤞❤
Thank you so much.Made today for Asthami bhog and it turned so so yummy. I fail all the time in making this and surprisingly my all family members relished and enjoyed for it's unique taste.Loads of love
Nice recipe and I am going to give it a try! But I have seen my mom do it for the complete family. She just keeps dumping one ingredient after another in a large (actually huge)saucepan... boil boil and boil...and at last goes in the tempering... and believe me! People have loved her Khichuri for ages and till date no one can beat it...
Thank you bong eats.Lakshmi pujor bhog ranna korata aj tomadr vdo dkhe korechi everyone was so happy.aro new new recipe release koro.R je bhabe prottek ta instructions mention koro khub easy hyjae ranna ta korte.
Prepared bhoger khichuri on mahashtami with labra. All of your recipes yield delectable taste. That’s needless to mention. Here what I would really appreciate is the measurements mentioned. Whatever the debates say measuring in grams gives the authentic result say it’s consistency or taste. First time had my khichuri correctly runny at the time of serving. Rice-dal and water proportions were accurate.
Your videos are so satisfying, that they not only make us hungry but also leave us desirous of cooking them ourselves! Bhoger Khichudi was one of the most eluded dishes to me thus far. I never got it right until I stumbled onto your channel. Right from the dry roast of the mug dal to the use of hot water in between - simple techniques but absolutely important for a perfect one! And to top everything, your awesome background score. Keep it up, wish lots of even more success to come.
And there we go with the quintessential part....the Ghee. Eitar chara ki khichuri complete hoy? And not to mention the omelette...you guys made my mouth water at the middle of the night.
Dearest Insiya and Saptarishi, can't thank you for this recipe. I followed the steps to the T and the khichudinhas come out awesome. Don't have words to describe my happiness and content while cooking. I'm a big fan of your channel and a few recipes I have tried are narkol bora, mach paturi, koraishutir kochudi chitol maach er Muitha etc. You guys rock. Whenever you're in Delhi NCR, kindly ping me. I'd live to host you two.
Tried the recipe. It came out superb. The bhoger bkhichuri taste mila!! Your directions and instructions were v clear, hence cud get the remembered taste of Ashtami bhig!!
