poondhu sadham...!!

POONDU SADHAM






Ingredients:



... Cooked rice – 2 cups



Small onion- 1/2 cup



Garlic pods – 1 cup



Ginger- 1/4 inch piece



Roasted and ground black pepper- 1/2 tsp



Raosted and ground cumin seeds- 1 tsp



Method:



An important thing in making any mixed rice variety is that the rice has to be cooked well but must be separate grains. Normally this can be achieved by roasting the raw rice in little ghee before cooking or adding a little sesame oil while it is cooking. Once the rice is cooked, cool it well in a wide pan/ plate.



Cut the onions, garlic and ginger into fine pieces. Heat oil or ghee in a wide skillet, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds , dried chillies (3-4 numbers) and curry leaves. Add the onion, garlic and ginger pieces and fry them on low heat.Add pepper powder and cumin powder. Add salt to taste and mix the rice , turning off the heat.
