Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 cup rice

8 cashews

-- OR peanuts

1/8 teaspoon turmeric powder

3 teaspoons oil

1 green chile

-- finely chopped

1/4 teaspoon mustard seed

1/2 teaspoon Fenugreek seed

1 teaspoon Channa dal

10 curry leaves

1 teaspoon fresh coconut -- grated

salt -- to taste

1 lime -- juice only

 

Wash the rice two or three times in fresh water. Then soak for

30 minutes.

 

Meanwhile, soak the cashew nuts in 1 cup water for just 15

minutes.

 

Bring water equal to 11/4 times the volume of rice to the boil

in a pot. When boiling add the rice, turmeric powder and 1/4

teaspoon salt. The rice should be cooked in 8-8 minutes, when

all the liquid should be absorbed. Turn off the heat, remove the

rice and spread in a flat dish or pan to cool and dry. Leave for

30 minutes.

 

In a wok or frying pan, heat the oil. Fry the chilies for 1 minute,

then add the mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds and channa

dal, drained cashew nuts and curry leaves and fry for 30 seconds.

Add the lemon or lime juice. Add the cooked rice and stir well but

carefully with a flat spatula so as not to mash the rice.

 

Garnish with coconut. The rice is now ready to serve.
