Twisted Onion Rice...

My vegetable vendor had not turned up for the last 2 days and except for onion, all the vegetables were over. So I ended up preparing Onion rice.. but, it definetly had a twist.. Prepare it and you'll enjoy eating it.


Cook rice, so that they can be spread across in a large basin to be warmed up and also it's easier to mix with the palya that we will make shortly.


Take a kadai, add 3 tbsn oil. Allow it to be warm. Now add 1 tspn mustard, allow it to splutter, now add 2 tspn of Kadile balle, 2 tspn of uddina balle, 1 tbpn of groundnut and mix well. Kadile balle and uddina balle with turn light orange and groundnut will start to crackle. This is the sign of them cooked.


Now add a pinch of turmuric, add the 2 md sliced onions and 6 - 7 pudina leaves. They both should be cooked together, so that they have each's flavour in them. Add 3 -4 curry leaves, 2 -3 chopped chillies and mix it well. Add hing too. Add chopped corriander on the rice and onion mixture, is ready to be mixed with rice. If you want, squeeze lemon juice on the rice and mix it well.


It's best tasted with a topping of curd on it.
