Carrot Rice

In a pressure cooker add the mustard seeds to some heated oil

When the seeds start to pop, add the cumin seeds and let it brown slightly

Next add the onions, ginger and garlic pastes and the green chillies and sauté until the onions go soft

The tumeric, coriander and chilli powders go in next

I let the masalas cook through and added the shredded carrots and let it cook for a few mins

Since we are making this dish in a pressure cooker, if any thing doesn't seem cooked, its absolutely fine

Add the 2 cups of rice and 4 cups of water (1:2 ratio) and add the required amount of salt

Mix everything really well, put the lid on and cook for 2 whistles

When the pressure goes off, transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with some freshly chopped coriander leaves

A raita goes well with this rice
