- 2
Heat ghee and pop the mustard seeds, then add the curry leaves and peanuts and fry to a light gold.

Stir in the seasoning and turmeric, cooking briefly so everything perfumes the fat.

Fold in the rice and salt over a gentle heat, tossing so every grain picks up the tempering.

Rest 2 minutes off the heat, finish with cilantro and serve warm.
Chef's tip
Cool rice before folding — hot rice turns mushy in the pan.
