Lemon rice

Heat the oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and let them crackle. Once the mustard seeds begin to crackle, add the peanuts, urad dal and chana dal.

Saute till the dals turns golden. cook on a low flame, so that the spices don't burn.

Then add the red chillies, green chillies (chopped) and curry leaves. Saute for a few seconds till the red chillies change colour. 

Switch off the flame and add the asafoetida and turmeric powder. Mix very well everything.

Stir and immediately pour this tempering mixture on the rice. Add the lemon juice and salt. Mix everything properly.

Keep it covered for the flavours to blend for 4 to 5 minutes.

Have the lemon rice just like that or with curd.
