    Simple Carrot Rice

    Oct 5, 2009 · Modified: Sep 25, 2021 by Priya_Srinivasan ·

    Simple, Quick and Easy Lunch box recipe. Though it is quick and simple, it is loaded with lots of Vitamins and Energy. Most kids never eat Carrots as simple curry/stir-fry, because of their sweet taste, For those Picky eaters, try this masaledar, Jabardast Carrot Rice.

    2 Cups Cooked Rice
    Salt to taste
    1 teaspoon Shredded Ginger
    Coriander for Garnishing

    Seasoning
    1 tablespoon Gingely Oil/Sunflower Oil
    ½ teaspoon Mustard Seeds/Kadugu
    3 nos Green Chilies, Slited Lengthwise
    2 sprigs of curry leaves 
    ¼ teaspoon hing/Asafoetida
    1 teaspoon Urad Dal
    2 tablespoon Peanuts/Vaerkadalai (optional)

    Method

    • Heat oil in a kadai/pan, splutter mustard seeds, add hing, green chilli, curry leaves Peanuts and Urad dal one by one.
    • Let Peanuts and Dal roast and change color a bit, Take care not to burn them.
    • Now add the shredded carrots and toast it for a minute or two. 
    • Take it off the flame and add it to the rice and mix well. Adjust Salt. Garnish with coriander and shredded ginger
    • If you are packing it for kids, try grinding chillies, ginger, curry leaves and coriander to a coarse paste and add while seasoning. yeah, I know, Kids!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Makes a good lunch with potato fry/chips. Packing this for Srivalli’s Kids Delight
