UDID NARAL BHAAT

INGREDIENTS

Rice	1 cup
Urad dal / split black gram soaked	2 – 3 tbsp
Scraped fresh coconut	4 – 5 tbsp
Salt	T.T.
Coriander leaves	4 – 5 sprigs
TADKA
Oil	1 tbsp
Rai / mustard seeds	½ tsp
Heeng / asafetida	¼ tsp
Curry leaves	1 sprig
Dry or fresh Red chillies	2 nos

 

METHOD:

1.       Prepare boiled rice by pressure cooking it. Immediately spread it out on a plate when hot so that the grains do not stick to each other. Pour a tsp of oil on it and mix lightly so that you do not break the grain.

2.       Heat oil, add the rai, heeng and curry leaves. Add in the broken chillies and the urad dal. Sauté well for some time.

3.       To the rice add salt and scraped coconut and mix lightly. Pour the prepared tadka over the rice and mix well.

4.       Now transfer back the rice to the same pan and keep it covered on very low heat till the rice is warm. Be careful as we do not want to cook the rice now.

5.       Garnish with chopped coriander leaves. Crushed roasted urad papad tastes divine with this rice.
