Bharatti Recipe
Yield: 6 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 cup: Basmati rice, (Carolina will
Do),
2 medium: Onions,
bn Fresh basil leaves, (about
Half cup when chopped),
1 tbsp: Curry powder, (mild or hot,
According to preference),
1 tsp: Salt,
4 tbsp: Good grade cooking oil,
500 gram: , (just over 1 lb) ground
Chicken or lean pork,
Directions:
Chop onions and fry in 2 tbsp oil until just starting to brown. Add
meat and curry powder, stir until brown. Scoop out onions and meat,
leaving oil in pan. Add dry rice and stir until transparent. Add 4
cups water and salt, bring to boil, cover and cook over LOW flame for
15 mins or until all water is absorbed. Add meat, onions, finely
chopped basil and the rest of the oil, stir and cook for another 3
mins.
(You could eat it now, but here comes the trick):
Put everything in shallow glass dish, cover with paper towel and
microwave on full power for another 10 to 15 mins. (YES, that long!)
The final ordeal in the microwave oven will turn the individual
grains of rice crispy on the outside, leaving their cores soft - a
heavenly crunchy sensation.
