Till Rice (ellu sadam)

Most of the time Dinesh has lunch and even dinner outdoors because of his meetings with clients.
So i end up wondering what to cook for myself which is really boring. I saw in my cooking shelf i had stored till seeds in a small glass jar and thought why not make some spicy till rice.

Ingredients:

  • cooked rice - 1 cup ( do not over cook the rice )
  • gingelly oil - 4 tsps
  • urud dal - 1 tbsp
  • red chillis - 4
  • till seeds - 1 tbsp
  • hing/asofoetida - a pinch
  • salt - to taste

Method:

  • Heat a kadai and add just little oil ,when hot add till seeds,urud dal,red chillies and fry them continously till the seeds splutter and dal changes colour
  • now transfer them into ablender and make a fine powder
  • In a mixing bowl, take hot steamed rice and add salt and 4 tsp of gingelly oil
  • slowly add the blended powder and mix well thouroughly and smoothly (do not smash the rice ) and serve

Serving sugesstions:

can be garnished with fried peanuts and taste best with chips/papadams
