Nucchi aka Coconut Rice

I think everyone of us has one or the other recipe in our vaults saved for the rainy day right ??? Atleast I have a few of them which I prepare when I am really exhausted or in no mood to cook an elaborate lunch or dinner.
Yesterday was one of those days …though I got back early from work I was in no mood to cook at all but then dragged myself to the kitchen and opened my virtual vault of recipes and the one that came into my mind was Nucchi or Coconut rice.
Well, the dish may look plain but please do not judge this dish by its looks rather prepare it and taste it.
The efforts required for this is just five mins.





Ingredients:

1 ½ cups –Basmati Rice
2 Tbsp- Fenugreek seeds (This is a must)
4-5 Tbsp –Oil
1 tsp- Mustard seeds
Few curry leaves.
4-5- Green chillies (or according to taste)
Handful of grated coconut.(This is a must)
2 Cups-Water

Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. Wait till they sputter, add the curry leaves, green chillies and the fenugreek seeds and fry for a minute or so. Add the rice and fry it for a minute, add the and grated coconut and pressure cook.

* We normally eat it with lime pickle. I think korma would also taste good with this.
