Recipe
1
Rinse 1/2 cup of basmati rice thoroughly and soak it in water for 20 minutes. After soaking, drain the water and set the rice aside.
2
In a deep pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add 1/2 teaspoon of mustard seeds and let them splutter.
3
Add 1/2 teaspoon of urad dal, 1/2 teaspoon of chana dal, and 5-6 curry leaves. Sauté for a minute until the dals turn golden brown.
4
Add 1-2 chopped green chilies, 1/8 teaspoon of turmeric powder, and a pinch of asafoetida (hing). Stir well.
5
Add the soaked and drained basmati rice to the pan and mix gently, ensuring the rice is coated with the spices.
6
Add 1 cup of water and salt to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the rice cook for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed.
7
Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and add 1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Mix gently to combine.
8
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
