Jeera Rice


Bored of having plain rice with curry? Try this cumin flavored rice known as Jeera rice. Very easy and quick to make to empty your left-over rice :)

Ingredients -
2 cups Cooked Rice(or left-over rice)
2 tbsp Ghee
2 tsp Cumin seeds/Jeera
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
A generous pinch of Hing
1/2 cup fresh Peas
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
1 tbsp Oil
1 tbsp broken Cashews
Salt to taste
Chopped Cilantro for garnishing

Method -
1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan and add ghee when hot.
2. Add cumin seeds, mustard seeds and allow them to splutter. Then add hing, turmeric powder and cashews.
3. When the cashew is slightly golden brown add peas and saute for 2 minutes.
4. Add the cooked rice (preferably cooled rice else when mixed it becomes mushy) and mix well with the other ingredients.
5. Add salt to taste and chopped cilantro.

Serve it hot with any curry of your choice! :)
