Ghee rice -Thalassery style


I had posted a ghee rice / neichor recipe before which is the normal method of cooking rice with water in a 1 : 2 proportion. This is the method we usually follow at home, which is the easiest way of cooking rice. I have seen my Thalassery neighbour always cooked ghee rice using the frying method. She fried rice in an immense amount of ghee, before cooking it in hot water. If she makes Biryani, she prepared ghee rice first using the same method and then mixed it with biriyani masala. (See the procedure here) The amount of water used is lesser in this method since we cooked rice once in ghee. I don't know this method is followed in any other place. Two of my readers had the same doubts, why their ghee rice turns yellow or the rice is so sticky after cooked. A poor quality rice, the excess amount of water, the color and less amount of ghee etc may affect the outcome.

Ingredients

Basmati rice 2 cups


ghee 3 Tbsp onion 1 cashews and raisins as desired fennel seeds 1/4 tsp cardomam 2 cloves 2 cinnamon 1 " piece water 3 cups(for 1 cup rice 1 1/2 cup water)

How to prepare

Wash and soak rice for half hour in water. Drain it and keep aside.

Wash and soak rice for half hour in water. Drain it and keep aside.
Boil water with salt and keep it hot. Heat ghee.Roast cashews and raisins and take out and keep aside. Add fennel seeds and other spices with chopped onion. When the onion is transparent, add washed and drained rice.Roast rice until it slightly changes color. Add the previously boiled hot salty water into it. Boil , reduce heat. When the water absorbs and holes appear on top,keep the lid closed and switch off fire. Keep it covered for half hour. When you serve, slowly separate the rice with a fork or a big spoon without pressing it much. Garnish with the roasted cashews and raisins. If your rice is not roasted properly, the amount of water wouldn't be enough for cooking rice completely. If so, add 1/2 cup or more hot water into it and cook for few seconds too. So keep extra hot water aside when you cook. Keep the lid closed in the whole process. You can open the pan in-between and just stir the rice until you switch off fire.

Ghee rice is usually served with parippu / dal curry, kachambar and thairu / raita..See the dal perparation here. See neichor with kachambar here.

If we fry the rice before, it won't turn mushy and stick together. In my house, if it is one pot dish, my mom fries the rice before. It looks delicious thalassery style Neichoru. 15 AP RIL 2008 21:06 Anonymous said... Hii, Ur recipe made me mostalgic :( Neyychoru looks absolutely fab.
