Wash the Sago cleanly. Then soak the Sago at least for 4 hours before making of khichdi. At least add 1 glass of water for soaking 1 cup of Sago. Soak till it became soft and fluffy.

Heat a pan on medium flame and roast the peanuts till became crunchy. Switch off the flame, wait till peanuts turn normal in temperature. Then, remove the skin of peanuts. Crush the roasted peanuts in mortar and pastel. Do not over crush. Remove the crushed peanuts and add the 2 chilies in mortar and pastel. Crush the chilies and make a thick paste.
