Oil to cook
Method
- Heat oil in large wok or kadai and add tadka miz=x one by one. At this time also add cashew if you want to
- Soon add the ginger paste and chopped green chili followed by chopped onion. Cook onions till they turn pinkish and glossy
- Add turmeric, corriander powder followed by chopped tomatoes. Cook the entire mix till tomatoes are mushy.
- Gently add cooked rice and salt and cover the lid. Cook on very low heat so that the spice mix is absorbed by the rice.
- In between gently turn the rice and check for salt.
- Once the spice is infused in the rice, finish off cooking at high heat to reduce the excessive moisture built by covering the wok.
- I love to pair this rice with Andhra style spicy beans
