Rinse the Basmati rice and yellow moong dal together under running water until the water runs clear. Soak them in water for about 20 minutes.
Heat 1 tsp of ghee or oil in a pressure cooker or a large pot over medium heat. Add 1 tsp of cumin seeds and let them splutter.
Add the soaked and drained rice and dal mixture to the pot along with 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder. Stir to combine.
Add the mixed vegetables (carrot, peas, beans) to the pot and mix well.
Add 3 cups of water and salt to taste. Stir to combine everything.
Cover the pot and cook until the rice and dal are soft. In a pressure cooker, this usually takes about 2 whistles. If using a pot, simmer until the rice and dal are cooked thoroughly, about 20 minutes.
For the cucumber raita, grate 1/2 medium cucumber and mix it with 200 g of plain yogurt. Add a pinch of salt to taste. Stir well.
Roast the papads over an open flame or in the microwave according to package instructions until they are crisp.
Serve the mixed vegetable khichdi hot with cucumber raita and a roasted papad on the side.
