I always love all mixed rice varieties. I don’t even need any side dish,just a papad or vadavam is enough for me and I eat unlimited
. For the same reason I rarely make,since vj also doesn’t prefer any mixed rice variety. When it comes to food, me and Vj are just contrast. I though rarely give him once in a while for his lunch. And I beg to adjust for a day
. But today I just made for myself and made it spicy as I wanted to eat something spicy to melt down my blocked nose.
Ingredients
| Rice | 1 cup |
| Roasted peanuts | 1/2 cup |
| Turmeric | 1/8 tsp |
| Ghee/ sesame oil | 1 – 2 tblsp |
| Salt | As needed |
| Sesame seeds | 3/4 tsp |
| Red chilles | 3 |
| Grated coconut/ koppara | 1/4 cup |
To Temper
| Oil | 1/2 tblsp |
| Mustard | 1 tsp |
| Urad dal | 1 tsp |
| Channa dal | 1 tsp |
| Curry leaves | 1 sprig |
Method
- Pressure cook rice and cool down to make the cooked grains separate by adding required salt and ghee/sesame oil. De skin the peanuts. Roast the sesame seeds,chilli and lastly add the coconut and fry until golden.
- Powder the chilli first roughly and then add other roasted items and peanuts. Grind into a coarse powder.
- Temper with the items given under ‘To temper’ table and add turmeric to it.Add it to the rice and mix well.
|
Serve with papad or any vadams, or if you like with any kootu or spicy curry.
Notes
- I always soak rice for long hours to cook it with very less water and that gives u separate grains as well as soft to eat.
- You can even add more sesame if you like to have that flavour dominating.
- The ingredient ratio is different from the original recipe to adjust my taste.
