Coconut Rice

One of my favorites.  And the easiest to make. The leftover rice can be used to make this "jhatpat" dish.

Ingredients:

Boiled rice (white)- 1 cup

Mustard Seeds- 1tsp

Jeera (Cumin)- 1 tsp

Green Chilly - 3-4

Curry Leaves- 12

Chana Dal- 1tsp

Urad Dal- 1tsp

Salt to Taste

Coconut- 1/2 cup  (Scraped)

Oil- 1 tbsp

Coriander Leaves

Procedure:

1. Mix salt with rice and keep aside.

2. In a pan add oil followed by chana dal, urad dal, mustard. Once the seeds start spluttering and the dal's turn slightly brown add cumin, green chilies and curry leaves.

3. Add the salt mixed rice from Step 1 and mix well.

4. Garnish with coconut and coriander leaves.
