Curry leaves masala rice – Easy karuveppilai masala rice recipe, perfect for lunch box too – Recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.
Usually, we make curry leaves rice in the South Indian style. Curry leaf is an aromatic herb used widely in South cuisine. It lends an amazing flavour to the dishes. We widely use this in sambar, rasam, poriyals,kootu,aviyal, kurmas,podis, and chutney. I have tried curry leaves pulao and shared the recipe also in Jeyashris kitchen.
A few days back I tried curry leaves masala rice and everyone at home loved it. So I thought I will shoot a video and document the recipe here. I used onion and ginger garlic paste in this recipe. Also, fennel seeds are added to give a nice flavour.
Many times we see people take out the curry leaves from their food and discard it. But if you add this way, even kids will eat without any fuss.
