Recently heard this recipe thru my hiking buddy and decided to try sooner!
Thanks to Raji for the homegrown Mint 😍😍

Recipe
* Saute in oil - one spoon jeera, little ginger, garlic, 3 g.chillies
* Add a bowl full of cilantro and another bowl full of mint - all washed
* Add a tiny tamarind peice and saute for just 2 or 3 mins
* Let it cool and grind well with half cup water
* Cook basmati rice one cup with 2.75 cups water in rice cooker and let it cool
* Add oil to tava - season with mustard, channa dhaal, one red chilli
* Add cashews - roast well, then add roasted peanuts, ground green paste
* I added green onions as well and then in few mins, add cooked rice carefully
* Dont mash it, mix gently, so the texture of the rice is retained
* Serve with Onion Raita! Yummy yummy it was.
