Carrot Rice


In case U are looking for a way to use lot of carrots, then this is the recipe! I use about 1 bowl of shredded uncooked carrot for 1 bowl of cooked rice. So that is a lot of carrots.

Recipe...

1. Soak 1 cup basmathi rice for an hr and cook it separately.
2. Peel and grate 7 or 8 big carrot(12 small carrots).
3. Dry fry - 4 red chillies, little dhania, chana dhaal(kadalai parruppu) and jeera. Let it cool and grind into fine powder.
4. Chop half onion
5. Add oil to tava, then add mustard and urad dhaal.
6. Then add the onions, fry for 2 mins. Then add the powder and carrots.
7. Add half cup water and mix well. Close lid and cook for sometime.
8. Then add 1 spoon salt and cook for few mins.9. Once carrots are 3/4th cooked, then add the rice and mix well.

Server hot with raita or masala! And here are the detailed pictures...
