Carrot Rice Recipe| Rice Recipes

Last Modified: April 17, 2015

When i m bored of making a complete South Indian thali (read as sambar, rasam, poriyal and rice), i turn to making a one pot rice dish with some veggies. While the Mr. enjoys vegetable pulao, i do like to make some simple recipes like this carrot rice. This is a hearty meal when served with some tomato raita. The tang in the raita complements well with this sweet and spicy rice. And it makes a fantastic lunchbox item too. There s this carrot pulao that i make once in a while when i m in the mood for all the roasting and grinding but when i need a quick fix, this is the recipe i turn to.
