Tamarind Rice

Mix the ground spice powder with the rice and a pinch of salt. Keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan. Temper with red chilli & mustard seeds. After it stops
spluttering, add the asafoetida, urad dal, green chilies, peanuts & curry
leaves. Saute for a few seconds.

Add the turmeric powder, tamarind pulp & salt to taste. Simmer till the
oil separates.

Add the rice & combine everything well. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes.

Switch off the flame and garnish with coriander leaves.

Serve with papad or chips.
