Simple Curd Rice
Curd rice is the most common dishes in south India.In fact, no afternoon meal is without curd rice and pickle.Its such a simple and easy meal to make. There are many ways toprepare and each follow their own easy way to make.I've discussed the way i learnt from my mom........delicious meal in minutes!!!
Ingredients
Rice-2 cups
Water-5 cups
Milk-1 cup
Curd -1/2 cup
Green chillies-2 no
Ginger -1 inch piece
Mustard seeds-1 tsp
Curry leaves-few
Oil-2 tbsp
Corriander leaves to garnish
Method
1. Clean rice and pressure cook in 5 cups of water for 10 minutes
2. Cut the green chillies into thin rings and chop the ginger piece. Keep them aside.
3. Take cooked rice in a shallow bowl and smash it well with a flat spoon.
4. Add 1 cup of milk to the smashed rice,stir and set it aside for few minutes till the rice gets partly soaked in milk.
The idea of adding milk is to make sure the curd rice does not get the sour taste after few hours.
5. Add curd to the rice and stir well.
6.Add required amount of salt.
7. Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds.
8. When the mustard seed crackles add curry leaves, green chillies and ginger. Turn off stove.
9. Carefully pour the above seasoning into the curd rice and spread it evenly.
10. Garnish with finely chopped corriander leaves and serve it hot.
This tastes even good when served with hot lime pickle or dried fish. Enjoy your meal.....
