Abadha

The sacred khichdi of the Puri Jagannath temple — rice and split moong cooked together with ghee, cumin, and a restrained masala in enormous quantities in the Ananda Bazaar, the world's largest kitchen. Served as Mahaprasad to thousands of pilgrims daily, the Jagannath abadha is cooked in earthen pots stacked in rows over wood fires; the topmost pot cooks first (a miracle attributed to Lord Jagannath's presence). Milder and more satvik than any restaurant khichdi.
