Please tell me why you pressure cook the rice. It may get over-cooked and mushy. If I did pressure cook as you say how many whistles?
We generally pressure cook the rice. If we add exact ratio of water it will not get mashed. Pressure cook for 3 whistles
Mam i am big fan of ur blog. i am trying ur dishes one by one….it has coming out well… And for the above recipe shall i prepare the paste in the night and mix the rice in the morning as i am working so….
Thank u so much for the nice words. You can make a paste and keep it the fridge over night. Do not keep it more than a day.
Dearest Jeyashri,
Thank you for all your easy,'do-able' and totally yumm recipes.I keep coming back here and try your recipes and i can surely say that if i follow your steps precisely 100/100 times it turns out perfectly!!
Thank you so much and keep the great work going!
You truly inspire me to cook every day:)
best,
Anu
