This fragrant, flavorful rice is the perfect side to any dish! We used a standard Jeera Rice recipe and elevated it with our Mirch Masala spice blend.
Ingredients:
1 c Basmati rice
2 c water
1tbs ghee or butter
1 tbs cumin seeds
Chopped cilantro for garnish
Lime juice
2tsp Mirch Masala
Method:
Rinse 1 cup basmati rice until water eventually runs clear
In a pan, heat 1tbs ghee/butter or oil and 1tbs cumin seeds
Carefully add in rice and 2 cups water, 2tsp Mirch Masala and salt to taste
Bring to a low boil and then turn heat down to low
Cover pot *almost completely* leaving a small vent
Cook on low until almost all the water has been absorbed (roughly 10 minutes)
Turn off heat and cover pot completely to allow rice time to finish steaming
