Khichu is a very traditional Gujarati dish which is traditionally a rice flour dough for making papad. However it is popularly consumed as snack due to its taste. Even though rice is the most common flour used to prepare khichu, there are several other flours that are used as well. It is really quick and easy. Today I will use a combination of Rice and Mug flour to make some khichu cups. I will also add some vegetable to bring a twist.
