Rice In Tomato Curry

 Sure! Here's a recipe for Rice in Tomato Curry:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup basmati rice
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 2 tomatoes, pureed
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
• Salt to taste
• 2 cups water
• Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

• Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for about 30 minutes, then drain and set aside.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent.
• Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
• Pour in the tomato puree and stir well. Cook for a few minutes until the raw smell of the tomatoes goes away and the mixture thickens slightly.
• Add the cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt to the tomato mixture. Mix everything together and cook for a minute to allow the spices to release their flavors.
• Add the soaked and drained rice to the pan and stir to coat the rice with the tomato mixture.
• Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Once it boils, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the rice simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed. Check the rice occasionally and give it a gentle stir to prevent sticking.
• Once the rice is cooked, remove the pan from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
• Fluff the rice gently with a fork. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves.
• Serve the delicious Rice in Tomato Curry as a main dish or as a side dish with yogurt or raita.
