Preparation:
*************
Take 1 cup rice in a pressure cooker, 2 cups water & 1 cup fresh milk. Use the same cup for all measurements.

Once it started boiling well close the lid. Maintain medium flame & cook it for 3 whistles. rice will cooked to mushy consistency.

Wait till the rice become cold. do not add the curd when it is hot. Use a spatula & smash the rice well.

Add 1 glass water while mashing the rice, this will avoid lumps formation in rice.

Add required salt, 3/4 cup or 1 cup curd & mix it well.

Add 3/4 cup milk if you are going to pack it for lunch and consume after 4 or hours. Otherwise skip adding milk.

if you want to get hotel style creamy curd rice, add 1/4 cup fresh cream. This is the secret ingredient. If you do not have fresh cream add 1 tsp butter when rice was hot

Adding fresh cream or butter will add nice aroma to the curd rice & make it even more tasty.

Add 1/2 cup grated carrot, finely chopped raw mango. these are optional only. you can add fresh grapes or pomegranate if you like.

We will do the tempering process now. In a heated pan add 1 tsp oil once it is heated add 1/2 tsp mustard seeds, 1 tsp urad dal, 1 tsp Chana dal.

Add dry 2 red chillies & saute well. once its sautéed well add 3 finely chopped green chillies, grated ginger, curry leaves & saute well.

Another important ingredient for curd rice is asafoetida. Add 1/4 tsp asafoetida & mix it well.

Leave the oil & add only sautéed things to curd rice once its cooled down a bit. if you add the hot oil to the curd rice it will curdle. so don't do it.

Finally add freshly chopped coriander leaves to this & mix it well. This will tastes awesome with Potato fry or mango pickle.
