1 Pressure Cooker A pressure cooker is often used to cook kichri quickly and efficiently. It helps to soften the lentils and rice faster, reducing cooking time.
1 Saucepan If you don't have a pressure cooker, a regular saucepan or pot can be used to cook kichri. It may take a little longer to cook.
1 Wooden Spoon A wooden spoon or spatula is handy for stirring the kichri while it cooks and preventing it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
1 Cutting board You'll need a cutting board and a knife to chop the vegetables and herbs that you might want to add to your kichri.
1 Mixing bowl If you want to soak the lentils and rice before cooking, a mixing bowl can be used to combine them with water and allow them to soak for a while.
1 Strainer If you prefer to rinse the lentils and rice before cooking, a strainer can be used to remove any impurities or debris.
1 Spice Grinder If you're using whole spices in your kichri, a spice grinder or mortar and pestle can be used to grind them into a fine powder or paste.
1 Serving Bowls Finally, you'll need bowls or plates to serve your kichri. You can garnish it with cilantro, fried onions, or ghee (clarified butter) for added flavor.
