Black Pepper - Cashew Rice
Being a South Indian, rice is a staple dish in my home and I am on a lookout for new rice dishes. For the same reason and the simplicity of it, I tried this savory black pepper - cashew rice. The authors mention that it goes well with both vegetable and meat dishes or raitas. However I served it with plain raita since it was spicy enough on it's own.
1 cup rice (I used Sona masuri rice. Basmati variety can be substituted.)
For tadka: 2 Tbsp oil / ghee, 1 tsp urad dal (split black gram), 1 tsp mustard seeds, few curry leaves and 1 dried red chilli, broken into bits
1 onion, finely chopped
1 tsp pepper powder
1 tsp cumin powder
1/4 cup dry toasted cashews
Salt to taste
Method:
Wash the rice and cook adding 2 cups of water. Let cool to keep the grains separated.
Heat oil in a pan and add the tadka ingredients. When mustard seeds start to pop, add chopped onion. When onion turns translucent, add pepper and cumin powders, salt and cashews. Mix well.
