    FRIED RICE

    Ingredients:

    Basmathi Rice - 2 cups
    Mixed Vegetables ( carrots, beans, green peas, cauliflower ..etc) - 2 cups
    Cinnamon - 2
    Cloves - 4
    Cardamom - 2
    Bay leaf - 1
    Salt to taste
    Ghee/oil - 2 tbsps

    Method:

    Soak rice for half an hour and drain. Keep aside.
    Slice all vegetables into thin shreds. Steam them for 2-5 minutes till they are 3/4 ths cooked.
    If you can , microwave the vegetables for a minute or two, the colour won't change.
    Heat oil/ghee in a pressure pan. Put in bay leaf, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom.
    When they brown, add drained rice and fry till it gets hot to the touch. The rice should be coated with the ghee uniformly.
    Add 3 cups of water ie 1 & 1/2 cups of water for 1 cup of rice.
    Add salt to taste. Cover the pan and put the weight. After 1 whistle , simmer for two minutes and remove from fire.
    When cool , open and mix in the cooked vegetables nicely.
    Serve with any of the spicy dishes.

    When we make spicy dishes for a party this rice goes well with them.
    You can decorate this with fried nuts and panneer pieces and make it look rich.

    Mixed Rice Variteies using APP

    TOMATO RICE

    By using A.P.P. we can prepare Tomato bath also.
    First cook the rice and keep it aside in a tray. Let it cool.
    Now take 2 to 3 ripe tomatoes and cut them in to pieces.
    Cut 2 - 4 green chillies in two pieces.
    Grate 1/2 inch ginger.
    Now put a pan on the stove and pour some oil in that.
    Add mustard seeds, udad dal, Channa dal, asafoetida, turmeric poweder in that.
    After the mustard seeds busts add green chilliesand grated ginger in that and stir well.
    Next add the tomato pieces and fry them well. Add salt first and next add the all purpose powder in the mixture.
    Stir them continuously other wise the mixture will stick in the pan floor.
    When all the ingredients become like a paste, remove the pan from the fire.
    After it comes to room temperature, store it in a dry container.


    Now take two or three spoons of the tomato concentrate and add it to the cooked rice. Mix them well. Now the tomato bath is ready to serve.

    For side dish, you can have potato chips or fried papped or vathal.
    You can keep the tomato concentrate for a month too. If you kept this in the freezer it will be there for more than 6 months.
    Whenever you need tomato rice you can prepare it without any strain.
    Even you can pack it for lunch.​
