Season the pearls

Drain the soaked pearls well, then toss them with the crushed peanuts, sugar and salt until evenly coated. This keeps the pearls separate and not sticky.

History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Maharashtra📅 20th century⚪ IN

Tapioca comes from cassava, a plant brought to India from South America, and sabudana (sago pearls) became especially popular in Maharashtra and Gujarat.

Because it isn't a grain, sabudana is permitted on Hindu fasting days such as Navratri and Ekadashi, which is why sabudana khichdi is so closely tied to festivals.
