Coconut rice is a simple dish which can be done in seconds and works well with leftover rice. Easy, delicious and highly affordable!

  • 1/2 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp split urad dal/white lentil/vigna mungo
  • 1/2 tsp chana dal/bengal gram
  • 2-3 dry red chilli
  • 2 sprigs curry leaves
  • a pinch hing/asafoetida
  • 1/2 cup grated coconut
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp ghee
  • to season salt

Method

  1. In a large kadai, heat oil and ghee
  2. Add all the ingredients except coconut and rice and mix well.
  3. Next, add the scraped coconut and sauté for a minute till the rawness goes. Do not overcook or allow the coconut change colour. Season with salt if necessary.
  4. Turn to low heat and add the cooked rice; mix well without breaking the rice.
