Description: Basmati rice is both tasty and beautifully long grained. This organic rice is recommended for your Ayurvedic / Indian cooking.
General Dal Recipe: Wash the rice 1-2 times with lukewarm water. Soak it, thereafter, in cold water for about 10 minutes - two parts water for one part rice. Heat a thin layer of oil in a pot and add any spices or onion that you might like. Fry them up a short while and then add your rice and water, also add salt to taste. Stir and then bring it to a boil with a lid on. Half the temperature once its boiling and leave it half covered with a lid. As the water gets absorbed almost fully, turn the heat off and leave the pot on the warm stove and cover it with the lid again. Put a thin cloth under the lid for a good steaming effect inside.
Recommended spices:
Cumin - tastes very good with basmati rice.
Vata, Pitta eller Kapha Balance Churna - choose one according to your body type.
Rock salt - instead of regular salt. Its more flavour filled and is also healthier.
