Easy to prepare lunch box meal. Or when you are going on a long drive during weekends you could pack this with pickle and potato chips.The following measurement serves two.
While cooking rice for variety rice (u0b95u0bb2u0ba8u0bcdu0ba4 u0b9au0bbeu0ba4u0baeu0bcd) the ratio of rice : water should be 1:3. For one cup of normal rice you will need 3cups of water. Let the rice cool down completely before we add coconut mixture
Heat ghee in a frying pan. Add cashew nuts to them
Once they turn golden brown, add coconut oil in the pan
Add dried chillies,mustard seeds,urad dal and curry leaves
Let them splutter
Now mix the shredded coconut along with salt and saute it for about 7-10 minutes
Once the coconut loses its moisture turn off the stove
Let the mixture be cooled
Now add the cooked white rice and mix properly. Ensure you dont make the rice mushy
