Sesame oil - 4 tsp
Green chili - 1 or 2 (slit and keep)
Onion - 1 (chopped to thin strips)
Garlic pods - 10
Salt - to taste
Rice - 1 cup (i used ponni raw rice so 1:2.5 ration rice:water)
Water - 2.5 cup
Bay leaf -2
Clove - 1
Preparation method:-
In a tawa add ghee & oil to heat. Add the spices (bay leaf, clove) and roast till flavor comes (do it in medium or slow flame).
Now add garlic pods, onion, green chili and fry till onion is cooked.Half cup of mint leaves and coriander is added and fried till nice aroma comes.
Add washed rice and fry for few mins, to this add water, salt and mix well. When this boils, transfer to a vessel and pressure cook for 5 whistle and leave it to cool.
