Cumin / Jeera Rice is a tasty rice dish which can accompany any spicy gravy and salad. I have added garlic in this recipe but then you can make without garlic to use as an onion and garlic less fasting dish. The rice will taste just as nice without garlic too.
Ingredients needed forCumin / Jeera Rice Recipe:
1 cup Rice (can also use cooked and left over rice)
10 flakes garlic( sliced fine)
1 1/2 tsps cumin seeds
1 tsp peppercorns
4-5 red chillies
Salt to taste
Oil / ghee as needed
How to prepare Cumin / Jeera Rice:
Cook the rice and spread it on a plate to cool. If you are using the left over rice of the previous day , then you can miss this step.
Add half a teaspoon ghee to the rice and mix well.
Roast cumin and pepper corns a little and then pound coarsely.
Heat ghee / oil in a non stick fry pan, add garlic pieces and fry till they are golden.
Add broken chilles and fry till they get crispy.
Add the powder and fry till a nice aroma comes.
Mix in the rice and add salt to taste.
Serve hot with any spicy vegetarian or non vegetarian gravy as a side dish.
Points to note while preparing Cumin / Jeera Rice:
You can add More Milagai or Curd chillies fried as a garnish instead ofadding red chillies in the Cumin / Jeera Rice recipe.
