This is a tasty rice dish from Sri Lanka.Rice is cooked after fried with Ghee,so that rice has a milkish taste.
2 cups long grain rice, wash and drain
2 medium onions, sliced finely
1-2 sprigs of curry leaves
1-2 sprigs of curry leaves
Cashew nuts
Plums (optional)
4 whole cloves
6 cardamom pods
1 cinnamon stick
Salt to taste
Ghee to fry (butter is an option if you cannot find ghee,but Ghee is more tasty)
Ghee to fry (butter is an option if you cannot find ghee,but Ghee is more tasty)
Method :
Wash rice & keep it to drain water.
Then heat a saucepan with ghee and fry the onion until soft and golden.
Drain it & keep aside.
Fry Cashew nuts & keep it too. Same way fry plums & curry leaves too.
Add ghee to a pan & fry spices & then add rice. Fry it under medium heat.
Then add water & bring the rice boil under low heat.(if you use a rice cooker,transfer rice to the cooker & add normal amount of water which we use for rice cooker,I normally use 1.5 cups of water for 1 cup of rice)
After rice is done,garnish it with fried Cashew & onion.
Serve with curry.
Ghee rice is ready….
If you like,you can add some turmeric to the rice.But I prefer it in white colour.
