Jeera rice in Pressure cooker | Variety Rice Recipe
This recipe was shared with me by a friend many years ago. Jeera rice is said to be popular in Kerala for weddings and special occasions. It is usually paired with coconut milk chicken curry but it goes well with other stews and curries too.
Ingredients
Rice - 2 cups
Curd - 1/4 cup
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Cinnamon - Small piece
Cloves -2
Cardamom - 2
Bay leaves - 2
Cashew nuts - 15
Ghee or Oil - 2 tbsp
Method
Heat two tablespoons of ghee or oil in a pressure cooker.
Add cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and saute for few seconds.
Add the cumin seeds, bay leaves, and let the cumin seeds splutter.
Add the drained rice and saute for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add curd and mix well with the rice.
Add 3 1/2 glasses of water and enough salt. (I have used jeerga samba rice so I've added 3 1/2 cups of water. Add water according to the rice you use)
Close the lid and cook for one or two whistles.
After ten minutes open the cooker and fluff the rice.
Serve hot with any veg kurma or chicken curry.
