Hi Everyone!!!!!!!!
First thank you all for your kind wishes and greetings.I am seriously very happy to see the response i get and above all i am very happy to see people sending me their innovative recipes to try it out. Thank you so much and many bloggers have asked about Chutney varieties which i will try to post very soon.I am actually running out of my posts because my little one started walking and she is really occupying my time. So posting my recipes when she is sleeping...((((((((((((((Anyways now we are going to Jeera Rice which is my family's all time favourite .Both me and my husband loves it and even my daughter licks it and she will show signals that she want more. Jokes apart , this dish is a very simple and mouth watering dish at any time and any where,
Jeera Rice will taste fantastically in North India.When i once went to Shridi , i had jeera rice there. It was really tasty.Then i just asked them how are they preparing the same.So got the delicious menu from them and started preparing jeera rice in their style. So you can have this once in a while only because the rice is totally made of ghee. But you can prepare this for some good family occassions. Jeera Rice differs from place to place where in some places they do not add much of ginger. So now let's see how to prepare jeera rice.
