:drowningwhat if the left over rice is over cooked?? Please tell me recipes for over cooked rice. Help me!!
Nice recipe madhurisatya I got this recipe from a friend recently...Its especially when rice is overcooked like Manmathi mentioned. Rice Pakoda For 1 cup of old rice: Besan - 2 spoons Green chili - 1 or 2 as per taste - chopped fine Salt to taste Turmeric - a pinch Red chili powder - 1/4 sp (Optional) Ginger paste - 1/2 sp Garlic paste (optional) - 1/2 sp Cumin powder - 1/2 sp Coriander leaves - a small bunch - chopped fine Onion - 1/2 chopped fine or slit thin length-wise Mix all the ingredients together. No water needs to be added, if the rice is too dry, just sprinkle enough water to bind it together. Make small balls and deep fry in oil. They come out super crispy and yummy. I guess we can add grated carrots and other finely chopped vegetables too to this to make it like Kofthas for a gravy.
If the rice is overcooked, you can make curd rice out of it , just add curds at the end to the above given recipe. will taste good.., you can add grated ginger also. hope this helps..
Left over rice can be turned into a good chinese fried rice (that we find in indian restuarants).Heat little oil, add chopped ginger,chopped garlic,chopped green chillies and fry.Add carrots,beans,capsicum and fry.Add salt,ajinomoto,soya sauce and fry.Add left over rice and fry well.Remove and serve hot.You could also add some boiled shredded chicken (from any left over chicken curry) to the abv for chicken fried rice or scrambled egg for egg fried rice.
