Khichdi

Khichdi | Pretty Polymath

  When I think of the ultimate comfort food, I think of my mom’s khichdi. It’s a rice and mung bean porridge that is mildly spiced and extremely delicious. Khichdi is a very personal dish to many in India. Every state, actually pretty much every family, has its own version of khichdi. People use various lentils, […]

S’mores Chocolate Tart

S'mores Chocolate Tart - Pretty Polymath

  Summer to me means bonfires, lemonade and s’mores. Warm, ooey, gooey, sticky sweet s’mores. Nothing makes a grown ass adult as giddy as making s’mores over a bonfire as the sun sets.
