I learnt this from my MIL.. I usually make this for my husband’s lunch box. My mil adds roasted & ground fenugreek seeds powder which gives a nice taste & flavour for this rice..Soon i’ll post my mom’s easy mango rice..
Ingredients
- Raw mango – 2 cups ( grated)
- Green chilly – 2 nos ( slit cut)
- Red chilly – 3-4 nos ( pinched into two)
- Methi seeds –3/4 tsp ( roast & powder)
- Turmeric powder – 1 tsp
- Hing – 1 tsp
- Salt – As required
- Cooking oil – 4 tbsp
- Mustard seeds – 1 tsp
- Urad dal – 2 tsp
- Channa dal –2 tsp
- Curry leaves – a sprig
For rice :
Basmati rice – 1/2 cup ( i used steamed rice with water & rice ratio of 2.5 : 1)
Water – 1 cup
Sesame oil – 1 tbsp
Method
- Grate the mangoes and set aside.
- In a kadai , dry roast the methi seeds till it turns brown and powder it.
