CURD RICE

Ingredients

Rice - ½ cup
Curd- ½ cup
Milk – ½ cup ( I used toned milk)
Capsicum finely chopped – 2 tbsp
Tomatoes deseeded and finely chopped – 1
Carrots finely chopped – ½ a carrot
Chopped cucumber -2 tbsp
Finely chopped ginger – 1 tbsp
Green chillies – 1 deseeded
Salt needed
Oil – 1 tsp
Mustard – ¼ tsp

Method

Pressure cook the rice.

When done, mash it well with a masher and add milk to it.

After it cools, add curd and needed salt. Add all the vegetables.

Heat a tsp of oil, add mustard when it splutters, add ginger and green chillies. Sauté for a few seconds and add to the curd rice. Mix everything well.

Garnish with finely chopped coriander rice.

Yummy curd rice is ready.

You can add a little butter (optional) , a tbsp of pomegranates and few green grapes if you like. Since I do not prefer the sweetness of fruits in curd rice nor butter, I did not add those ingredients.

My kids do not prefer plain curd rice, may be because it is always available at home, but they enjoy the same curd rice if seasoned or presented differently.
