Tu Na Jaane Aas Paas Hai Khuda

Khichdi!!

"Woah! My Favorite!! That too Chhoti maa ke hath ka bana hua....this is the only thing which I made in Seattle most of the time and missed you every time while having it...Moong daal ki mix khichdi with lots of seasonal vegetables and with hot tempering of Ghee and cumin.But Kitna bhi try kar lo aapki recipe copy karne ki but it always lacked in taste or something is always missing.May be the love you pour along with this home made loads of ghee,the local taste of organic vegetables and pulses or the proportions of ingredients you use to savour it,Just like this life..perfect mix and blend of all the emotions and feelings and our deeds which makes it perfect!Its so alluring and tempting you know".Sidharth said smacking his lips and kissing chooti maa's cheeks squeezing her.

"Kuch Jyada nahi ho gaya bhai...ye Khichdi pe bhi life ki philosophy enough of this gyan...and kissing Chooti Maa's cheek over this blend of this sticky mixture of daal and chawal and itni saari free me yahan wahan ghusi hui sabjiyan...free me matar ka bhi swad khasrsb ho gsys...upar se itna sara full mota karne  wala Ghee!!Meri to figure hi kharab ho jani hai seriously!!! Ewwu...bhakk! Now I know every meal and food will be of your choice only till you are here bhaiya,Aapki wajah se mujhe bhi  yeh ultra freak healthy khana nigalna padega".Pihu cribbed eyeing Sidharth pouting in annoyance and separating vegetables from the Khichdi aside.

"Jalankhor!!! Chhoti Maa sirf meri hai...you both girls are so pampered by Maa so much already...don't eye my and Chooti Maa's love now...aur ye fruits and vegetables and dairy products acche se khayegi tabhi to apne Vlog me fresh and glowing lagegi...otherwise who looks at bimar,lazy bandariya like you".Sidharth said teasing her.

"Huuh.. ye khichdi  mujhe mid day meal wali feeling deti hai which I used to see when I used to accompany Mummy to the government  school inspection  and to aanganbadi visits..yucky khichdi".Pihu said making face.

"Mid day meal ki khichdi itni acchi nahi hoti hai Pihu!!!Ask me its my everyday work to inspect the quality supply of the grains. Eat properly without any complain baccha!.Ghar ka khana is a blessing which may not be always scrumptious but its always healthy,complete and good in all aspects.So stop fussing over it and eat whatever you get to eat...you are lucky enough to get a proper meal of all 4 times in a day...alot of people are deprived of a proper single meal in a day..it's a blessing in disguise so respect it beta....and stop separating the vegetables from it....next year you will be in college hostel..I won't be there to take care of you ,so stop being so choosy and learn adjusting atleast your food habits for you own good."Rita Maa said with a stern look indiacating Pihu to eat.

"Aur Haan! It was me who suggested cooking Khichdi to Pinky(Chhoti Maa) as we ate very heavy breakfast and its better to keep something Light for Lunch.Sidharth ne koi farmaish nahi ki mujhse...that you do all time....aur Tumhari pasand ka parwal ka chokha hai na Khichdi ke sath and aaloo ka chhokha bhi ,along with Tilauri ,aur achar to sabji ke jitna tum pehle se le chuki ho..then stop cribbing and eat fast..bacchon ki tarah samjhana padta hai tumko har baat!! And you are talking about Milk products Sidharth...doodh dahi malai se to iska door door tak ka vasta bhi nahi hai...Ghee kisi tarah mix kar ke deti hoon khane me isko....Kaun samjhaye Ki as per medical science every girl child should consume 500-600 ml milk per day...if not then eat fresh curd and Paneer...kaun samjhaye aaj kal ke bachhon ko".Rita Maa spoke sighing.

"Paneer khati to hoon...aur aapke daant se hi pet bhara rehta hai mera".Pihu spoke pouting in annoyance.

"Mujhe dinner me mere pasand ka aaloo matar ya fir Kashmiri Dum aaloo ki sabji chahiye...then only I will east this Khichdi ,Let me clear this first".Pihu said making puppy eyes.

"Waah...Dhamki!!!...Ye koi barter system chal raha hai kya ki Khichdi ke badle aaloo matar!!..Tujhe to bureaucracy me hona chahiye...aise hi dhamka dhamka kar kaam karwayegi...You are wasted in this Science stream beta!!...Give and take karti rehna sara time.Aaloo kha kha ke khud aaloo ban jana Pihu tu...sara din aaloo ki bhujiya,aaloo dum,aaloo chokha,aaloo soyabean,aaloo matar,aur aaloo ka stew aur haan the vegetables that don't go with potato usme bhi tumhe aaloo chahiye...bloody potato....Maa mere rehte aaloo ek bhi din nahi banega ghar me".Sidharth declared.
