Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Cooked Rice

  • 1 tsp Oil
  • 1 tsp Mustard Seeds
  • 1 tsp Split Urad Dal (Optional)
  • 2 Green Chili chopped
  • Few Curry Leaves
  • 1 tsp Ginger chopped
  • a Pinch Asafoetida (Asafetida / Hing)

  • Now add cooked rice and pour the milk and curd and mix the rice thoroughly.
  • Add salt according to your taste and give a good mix
  • Now the tasty Curd rice is ready to serve.

Notes

  1. For packing curd rice for travel, use more milk and less curd to prevent curd rice becoming sour. I would recommend  to add milk fully and add only 1 tablespoon of curd. 
  2. If we add milk and very little curd to hot rice the rice will not become much sour later when we eat.
