Instructions

• Now add chopped tomatoes, cook until soft.
• Add turmeric powder and sambhar powder, cook with masala.
• Pour 2.5 cups of water. For 1 cup rice and ¼ cup toordal, you may need 2 to 2.5 cups of water depending upon the rice variety you use.
• You can use the same rice: water measure plus half cup extra water for cooking the dal. So altogether it will be around 2 to 2.5 cups needed.
• Let the water boil with the masala. Add required salt.
• When water starts boiling add washed, soaked and drained rice. Mix well.
• Close cooker lid and cook for 3 to 4 whistles, like you usually cook plain rice.
