Receta Vegetarian Tahari | A Vegetable Casserole
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Basmati Rice
- 2 Tbsp Butter or Oil
- 1 tsp Cumin seeds
- 1 Medium Onion, sliced
- 1 Medium Potato, diced
- 1 Cup Diced carrots and peas, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
- 1 tsp Garam Masala
- 1/4 tsp Crushed red pepper
- Salt to taste
Few Coriander leaves, for garnishing
Sliced green chilli (optional)
Instructions
Cook the rice with 2 cups of water in a pressure cooker for 2 whistles. The rice has to be cooked 75%. Allow it to cool and fluff it up with a fork to separate the grains. Keep aside.
Meanwhile, heat butter in a pan. Add the cumin seeds and once they sizzle add onions and saute until translucent.
Then add the potatoes and carrots (if using fresh) and fry them until they cooked by sprinkling water as needed.
If you are using frozen carrots and peas, add them after the potatoes get cooked. If you are using fresh peas, cook them separately and add them.
Once the veggies are cooked, add the spice mixes - turmeric powder, garam masala, crushed red pepper and salt.
Mix them well and fry them for a couple of minutes. Then add the cooked rice and gently mix it with the veggies. Keep the flame low while doing this.
Finish the cooking in a oven heated at 350 F for about 10-12 minutes.
Once it is done, add the sliced green chilli (if using) and coriander leaves. Serve it with a Raita.
