Dahi chawal (Rice with yogurt)

Ingredients

white long rice 1 glass
water 1 2/3 cups
butter 2 tablespoons
salt 1 tsp
dahi (salted yogurt) 310 ml
ginger 1/4 tsp

Cooking method

  • The recipe for this dish has been known for many hundreds of years - it is mentioned in ancient Vedic scriptures. It is highly nutritious and easy to digest. It should be served at room temperature or slightly chilled. Combined with a vegetable dish or salad, this rice makes a wonderful light breakfast on a hot summer day.
  • "Rice should be washed in cold water, soaked for 10 minutes, and then allowed to drain for another 15-20 minutes.
  • Bring water to a boil in a heavy teflon-lined saucepan. Add rice, stir, reduce heat to low and close with a tight-fitting lid. Let it simmer slowly without stirring for 20-25 minutes, until the rice is soft and fluffy and the water is completely absorbed. Remove from heat and leave the rice covered for 5 minutes, allowing the delicate grains to become firm. "
  • I did everything according to the instructions, but for some reason the rice turned out still not the same as I expected. It didn't turn out to be crumbly.
  • Dahi chawal (Rice with yogurt)
  • Then add butter to the rice.
  • When the rice has cooled to room temperature or cooled, carefully add the dahi and ginger and serve immediately.
  • Bon appetit, everyone.

Oh, how interesting and unusual! And ginger to boot! And by the way, what a ginger, Ol? Fresh grated or powder? If it's fresh, then I can even with him an old stinking goat devour gobble up and not choke!

Irina, according to the recipe 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger or 1 teaspoon of peeled and grated or finely chopped fresh ginger. I added ground, as there was no fresh one. Although we must probably try this and that.
Ir, thanks.

Wow, it turns out this dish has such a beautiful name. My son is very fond of rice mixed with yogurt, but only to keep the rice warm. ... And I do not soak or rinse the rice itself, but fry it until transparent in ghee and fill it with boiling water.
