Ingredients:
- 1 green chilli, whole (optional)
- 1 garlic clove
- salt , to taste
- around 400ml/14fl oz water (or 500ml/17fl oz if using brown rice)
Directions:
- Soak the washed rice and lentils in a large pan of water for 30 minutes.
- In a large non-stick saucepan melt the ghee.
- Add the cumin and fry for 20 seconds, until the seeds have coloured and their aroma has been released.
- Stir in the onion and cook until softened.
- Add the chilli, ginger, garlic and salt and cook for a minute
- Add the drained rice, lentils, turmeric and water.
- Bring to the boil briefly
- Lower the heat and simmering gently until the rice and lentils are tender. This should take approximately 20 minutes. (If using brown rice, follow the same method, cooking the rice and lentils for 40 minutes with a little additional water.)
- Once tender, stir in the garam masala and freshly ground black pepper and serve.
- For those who can't buy garam masala I will look up a recipe and post asap.
