👩‍🍳 How to make Xacuti Breakfast

Reheat xacuti (8 mins, low heat): Heat xacuti gently with 3 tbsp water to prevent drying. The roasted coconut and poppy seed masala will re-emerge beautifully as it warms.
Serve with rice or poi: Serve hot xacuti over rice or with poi for dipping into the thick, aromatic gravy.

📖 Cultural notes

Leftover xacuti for breakfast on Sunday mornings after Saturday's cooking is a beloved Goan routine â€” the complex roasted spice flavours deepen overnight making it arguably better the next day. ---
