If you eat fish, this is soon to be your favorite Kitchari bowl. The poached salmon is super easy to make and very tender to the taste. Often nicknamed a ‘brain food’ for its rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, salmon nourishes the brain with the protein and healthy fats & oils it needs to function at its best and for you to feel energized and focused. Bon appetit!

Steps 

  1. Pour Yoom Kitchari in 3.5 cups of boiling water in an 8” pot.

  3. Meanwhile, put 1 cup of water, dill, parsley and shallot in a sauté pan and bring to a simmer on medium heat.
