Tapioca Pearls/Sabudana Khichdi

Sabudana - 1 cup
Onion - 1
Ginger - 1 inch
Green chilis - 4
Potato - 1
Peanuts - 1/4 cup
Cucumber - 1/2
Red Chili powder - 1 tsp
Salt - to taste
Oil - 1 tbsp
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Lemon - 1/2
Cilantro - to garnish

Soak the sabudana with enough water to just cover the top of the pearls. Close lid and leave soak for 2 hrs. The pearls will absorb all the water, and plump up. This is tricky, as too much water will make them soggy and mushy. Too little and they won't plump up.
Chop the onions, ginger and green chilis. Peel and chop the potato and cucumber into bite sized pieces. Crush the peanuts.
Heat the oil and add the cumin seeds. When they splutter, add the chopped onion, ginger and green chilis. When they are soft, add the potatoes. When the potatoes are soft, add the salt and red chili powder, and mix.
Add the pearls, crushed peanuts, and mix well. cook till the pearls are translucent and mix in the cucumber and cilantro. Squeeze the lemon and serve.
