Ingredients
- Polao rice (2 cups)
- Red lentils (1/2 cup)
- Roasted mung dal (1/2 cup)
- Water (6 cups)
- Green chilies (4–5)
- Onion (1)
- Turmeric powder (1 teaspoon)
- Chili powder (1/2 teaspoon)
- Cumin powder (1/2 teaspoon)
- Coriander powder (1/2 teaspoon)
- Ginger-garlic paste (1 teaspoon)
- Oil (1 tablespoon)
- Salt (to taste)
Method
- Wash the rice and dal mixture and drain. Heat oil in a pot and add chopped onion. When the onion softens, add all the spices and keep stirring until well fried.
- Add the rice-dal mixture and fry well. When toasted, add water. Use twice as much water as the total rice and dal. When the water has mostly reduced, add green chilies. Cover and let it steam on very low heat for about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
