Tomato Rice

published by mdkshareef on Feb 17, 2011

There are numerous ways of preparing tomato rice, this recipe is pretty much very simple to make. I was never a huge fan of tomato rice, until I tasted this.

Ingredients:

Rice                         -       4 tbsp

Tomatoes                 -       200gms

Oil or ghee               -       4 tbsp

Mustard                    -       1 tsp

Black gram dal         -       2 tsp

Peanuts                   -       2 tbsp

Curry leaves            -       few

Onion                       -       1 cup, chopped

Kasuri methi             -       2 tsp

Chilli powder            -       1 tsp

Coriander powder    -       1 tsp

Turmeric powder      -       ½ tsp

Salt                          -       to taste

Method:

Blanch and peel the tomatoes. Remove the seeds and blend in the mixer. Add enough water to make 41/2 cups. Wash the rice, drain and place over the cooking plate in the cooking pan. Add the tomato liquid and salt. Press the switch to “Cooking”. Heat oil in a kadai and season with mustard, dal, peanuts and curry leaves. Add onion and fry till light brown. Add kasuri methi, chilli, turmeric and coriander powders. Add to the rice and stir gently. When the rice is done, the switch will move automatically to “Keep Warm”. Switch off the cooker after 15 minutes; stir the rice gently before serving. Or allow keeping warm till time to serve up to four hours.
